8Mb Broadband
The arrival of 8Mb broadband means that the rush is on to provide UK consumers with ever faster internet access.
Initially only available from Bulldog and UKOnline, BT’s upgrade to ADSL MAX has meant that many more providers now offer speeds of up to 8Mb.
While customers are not always guaranteed 8Mb – speeds are subject to distance from the exchange – the move to ADSL MAX has vastly improved speeds for many people.
Why go 8Mb?
With an 8Mb broadband download speed your broadband provider will be in the ideal place to start offering you broadband TV.
With the purchase of Easynet (UkOnline Broadband as they are better known to consumers), by Sky TV, we believe that UKOnline 8Mb broadband customers will be offered internet TV services within the coming year.
Who's next to offer 8 Mb broadband?
Bulldog, Wanadoo and UKOnline were leading the race but many more have since caught up. 8Mb speeds are now available from a whole host of other providers including BT, Virgin.net and Pipex.
The cable company Virgin Media (formerly ntl:Telewest) has upgraded certain customers to up to 10Mb speeds. Virgin Media and BT are both in strong positions to start offering broadband TV.
