New faster broadband services coming to Mauchline
28 July
Faster broadband services are coming to Mauchline, with the announcement that speeds of up to 20Mbps will be available after an upgrade of the BT exchange by Spring of next year.
The improved service is part of a move to bring faster broadband to almost 150,000 more Scottish homes and businesses in 31 communities as part of the latest roll-out plans for BT’s next generation copper broadband service.
The improvements will make available broadband speeds of up to 20 megabits per second (Mbps) – more than double the maximum speeds previously available to the majority of UK homes and businesses.
More than a million homes and businesses in Scotland have already been upgraded to the new next generation broadband network, which is available on an open, wholesale basis to all internet services providers.
Brendan Dick, BT Scotland director, said: “This is another important step forward for Scotland. Faster broadband can help businesses become more competitive and greatly improve the online services available to families and homeworkers.”
