What is ADSL Broadband?

Quite simply, broadband gives you a high-speed connection to the Internet that is ‘always on’. Whether used for business or leisure, it enables you to:

• Talk and surf at the same time on the same line
• Instantly access the Internet whenever you like
• Stay in touch at all times
• Send and receive attachments more easily
• View web content up to 40 times faster than before

How can it help me at home?
Broadband’s high-speed connection lets you access websites, download music, play games, watch movies – all faster than before. And because it uses a separate line, you (or someone else) will be able to talk on the phone at the same time as being online.

How can it help my business?
Broadband enables you to communicate more effectively with customers, partners and suppliers. Less time spent downloading files and emails means you can turn work around more quickly, while a range of packages geared towards the business user means you get the support and services appropriate to the needs of your business.

How does it work?
Broadband is delivered over a standard BT telephone line – you won’t have to waste time or money getting a new line installed. In most cases, your telephone number will remain unchanged and depending on what package you choose, you’ll either be able to install everything yourself or have an engineer come to help you. All you need is a computer that meets the minimum requirements, plus a broadband modem and microfilters (phone adapters) which we can supply if required.
