Re: FTTPoD - Has anyone explored?

Can you rent somewhere in Much Dewchurch? ( A garage maybe?)

Someone there has 38Down 8 Up so there is potential in the area.

Also in Pontrilas

I get 4G, but limited to 20gb via tethering. Is there anyway I can utilise that speed, with unlimited download?

Potentially, that shouldn't have to be the answer though, love living/working here. frown

I think the idea here is to rent somewhere to get fast internet then use a wireless point-to-point connection to beam it to your house.

You don't say whether you are on very slow FTTC or if it is just ADSL available? If FTTC is not available to you then the original FTTPoD product would not be available as they only provided it if FTTC was available to the house. It is likely that any future FTTPoD product will have the same stipulation as to do it they need most of the fibre network to already be in place.

EE will do you 50GB/month for about £50 a month inc vat. You won't get unlimited 4G tethering.

Just ADSL available, I'm on an EO line. Houses just up the road, under 500m away are part of the rollout, yet we're getting excluded...

Yeah i thought this might be the case, I'd be afraid of exceeding that limit. frown

In which case the FTTPoD product of old would not be available to you either. Until BT either launch new packages or add you to either an FTTP or FTTC rollout then you aren't going to get anything better from them. The only options available would be 4G, satellite, leased lines or bonding. Pretty much all of which have already been covered in this thread - at this point your options are limited.

Know anyone in those houses? Do you have line of sight?

If so, you could always ask them to host a fixed-line connection for you, and then run your own point-to-point wireless connection back to your place.
