Virgin Media announced earlier this week some detail about a data breach that saw details of some 900,000 leaked. Turgensec who brought the breach to the firms attention has now issued a disclosure statement.

CityFibre has published a total of 62 towns and cities where it will deploy FTTP and thus be a part of their eventual dream of making full fibre available to some 8 million premises.

Another rural corner of the UK gets full fibre, this time via the Gigaclear roll-out.

The next areas for the DOCSIS 3.1 have been announced and it is the Birmingham and Coventry areas of the West Midlands that should see the Gig 1 (1100 Mbps) tier available in March 2020.

The CityFibre full fibre network currently retailed exclusively by Vodafone under the Gigafast umbrella has been expanding and the latest place to see an increase in the footprint is Cambridge.

Tracking what Openreach have built and also released for providers to sell to the public is one of the things that keeps us busy and hitting the two million premises mark deserves a small mention.

In just six days we have seen the CityFibre footprint jump by 9,000 premises with more premises covered in Southend, Milton Keynes and Coventry.

The latest financial results are out and we add some data from speed test observations which indicate that the network is faster in RFOG areas or new customers are buying higher speeds on average than the long established areas.

CityFibre full fibre which is selling under the Vodafone Gigafast products has seen several thousand premises added to its footprint.

We have mapped the roll-out of FTTP by KCOM in Driffield, with other areas such as Market Weighton and Nafferton expected to follow.
