What you mean ...Chris, give up on the copper thing. What you mean is many people are happy with a few Meg as that works for them for iPlayer and email.<br /><br />Let's have some sensible discussions on how do it. Please come up with a realistic business case for both rural and urban areas we can discuss.<br /><br />The 'F' word does not help achieve anything. As Barry showed it's a complex subject and be realistic.<br /><br />Look at some typical areas that have no or slow broadband. What are the solutions where people want to pay £10/month and the take up is eg. 30% to start with. How would the funding work?<br /><br />So the BDUK money is insufficient, councils will not fund community groups with no real experience and many communities do not have the resources or expertise.<br /><br />What's the answer? Barry showed that a JFDI approach will not work in the majority of places, fine in a few. The Ashby project is (relatively) about as easy as you can get.<br /><br />As an example - what's the solution for a group of 350 houses, close together?Somersethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01709436313316655430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-694598996257651817.post-32506688596488725382011-03-14T19:45:03.489+00:002011-03-14T19:45:03.489+00:00think a 'break the network' day wouldn'...think a 'break the network' day wouldn't really work, because of all the traffic management. ;) Anyway its already broken. The old copper lines creak and moan but nobody listens. The suits go round patting themselves on the back bringing in still more measures to protect the cabals and at least a third of the country curses them.<br />We have all got to jfdi ourselves. then we can join up the different networks and get our own peering and data centres. It looks to me like even BSG isn't doing anything remotely bloody useful. Ofcom is no use and never has been. BDUK have not enough money and no power to guide the fwit councils. The whole country is b0rked unless we do IT ourselves. time to get the diggers out.<br />chrischrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07574928297845542047noreply@blogger.com
