| BBC NEWS | Technology | Broadband black spots still rife : There is still a huge disparity between the town and country when it comes to access to fast net services. The road to broadband is a long one for remoter areas of the UK. Despite the fact that two million people in the UK are accessing the net at high-speed, there are still plenty of broadband black spots. And you don't have to be very far out in the country. My good friend Leon is maybe 5 miles from the M25 and 2 miles from the A1. All the nearest towns are broadband enabled, but he's just outside the distance limit. Then there's most of Milton Keynes as blogged previously. There has to be an economic solution to this that benefits both the provider and customer. [from: JB Ecademy] |
