Virgin launches 50MB broadband

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

Virgin Media today launched its much anticipated ultrafast 50Mb broadband service. Giving customers nearly nine times the average headline broadband speed in the UK, the launch of the 50Mb service is a seismic leap forward for broadband access in the UK and the coming of age of Virgin Medias unique fibre optic cable network.

Neil Berkett, Virgin Media’s CEO, said today marks a historic moment, for both Virgin Media and the UK. As the first ISP to roll out next-generation broadband access, our 50Mb broadband service represents the dawning of a new era of high-speed services in the UK and is just the beginning of what we hope to offer our customers over the coming years. This service will transform the way people interact and entertain themselves online and will provide a broadband experience that is truly world class.”

With the massive take-up of video-rich entertainment and social networking websites, the new 50Mb service is expected to meet the rapidly growing consumer demand for faster broadband speeds and greater bandwidth. Research conducted by YouGov for Virgin Media found that in the last year more than half (53 per cent) of Brits had started watching TV programmes or clips online. The research also found internet use is at an all-time high with 88 per cent of Brits going online every day. The average amount of data consumed by Virgin Media customers has nearly doubled in the last 18 months and is predicted to quadruple by 2013.

The 50Mb broadband service will allow users to download an entire music album in as little as 11 seconds; a TV show in around one minute, a high quality movie in as little as 3½ minutes and a high definition movie in around 15 minutes. The increased bandwidth also means that multiple users can be on the internet at the same time without it affecting the quality or speed of their service. This makes 50Mb broadband ideal for families, people in shared households, such as students and couples, or anyone needing to share a broadband connection. YouGov’s research found 71 per cent of UK homes now have two or more computers/laptops or games consoles connecting to the internet. In addition 78 per cent of homes share broadband access as there are two or more people within the home.

The launch of 50Mb is part of a massive investment in Virgin Media’s network and more than doubles the capacity of the original build of the UK cable network, creating the potential for speeds of 200Mb. The upgraded network means significant improvements to the service received by all of Virgin Media broadband customers, with current 10Mb and 20Mb users being moved onto the new “DOCSIS3” network, freeing up capacity for increased traffic on the existing DOCSIS 1.0 network. In time, the upgrade to DOCSIS 3.0 means Virgin Media will be able to handle more than three times the data currently handled by the cable network.

Using the latest state of the art hardware, the 50Mb broadband package comes with a new DOCSIS3.0 modem, a wireless ‘N’ router offering the UK’s fastest wireless connection, plus free anti-virus and anti-spyware software as well as unlimited downloads. A typical family will be able to get the new ultrafast service for as little as £35 a month.

By the end of 2008, Virgin Media will have completed deployment of its next generation infrastructure to 40% of the network. This will include areas in Scotland, the Midlands and South London. Roll-out to the rest of the 12.6 million homes covered by Virgin Media fibre optic network is expected to be complete during the Summer of 2009.

Be broadband set to double its speed to 24mb

Wednesday, December 17th, 2008

Be Broadband has successfully completed their first trials to double the speed of their up to 24Mb broadband to almost 50Mb.

Be Broadband already offers broadband up to 24Mb but has been testing new technology in London that can ‘bond’ two high-speed connections together - doubling customers’ current speed.

The initial trial ran across the central London Paddington exchange. In member feedback, Be’s customers have reported real-world download speeds of between 30Mb and 45Mb. This is the equivalent of 3MB to 4.5MB each second - the size of an average MP3 file. Wider trials of the service are planned through 2009.

Felix Geyr, Managing Director of Be Broadband, said “We want to push the limits of high-speed broadband. We already offer the fastest possible broadband on an ADSL line, but we want to take it a step further. If you want broadband around the 50Mb mark but don’t want to go the cable route, Be wants to offer you a real alternative.”

Earlier this week Virgin announced that it will be rolling out faster broadband services through to summer 2009. However, these services will only be available in cable areas. Non-cable customers would be required to have their current phone line converted to use the service. Be Broadband’s trials will allow customers to get equivalent speeds through standard BT phone lines.

Thursday, November 27th, 2008

In addition to Tiscali’s award-winning value broadband and line rental services, Tiscali now offers broadband packages for home movers and cable switchers:

1. Home Movers - if you’ve have just moved house and want a broadband and phone service;
