VIVID developments already have a mixture of broadband solutions depending on the age of the development, and now moving forward they are hoping to make things easier for landlords and residents.

The positioning and ability to claim the varied titles of fastest continues with CityFibre looking a 1.2 Gbps XGS-PON service so that customers can see real Gigabit speeds.

The shift from copper based broadband services to full-fibre continues at Openreach with an additional 28 exchanges where FTTP connections will be prioritised from November 2024.

The conveyor belt of Openreach FTTP building continues with us finding the service available to an additional 299,356 premises in the last month.

As Scotland now has over 1 million premises where homes or businesses can get Openreach FTTP installed the network operator has named the 20 areas with the highest proportion of FTTP.

Havering Council is looking for an FTTP infrastructure builder to put full fibre into their roughly 4,900 owned properties by the end of 2025.

As well as the new CEO Rajiv Datta, the wholesale joint venture nexfibre has announced that it has passed 500,000 out of its eventual goal of 5 million premises by 2026.

The costs of materials, labour and getting anything built, be it a full-fibre network, or a kitchen have shot up in the last year, and F&W Networks is the latest builder to talk of its problems.

It is not often we positively know some FTTP has been delivered via vouchers, but due to input from the public we know that a chunk of the recently delivered Openreach FTTP around Brightling is via a Community Fibre Project utilising DSIT Rural Gigabit Vouchers.

Residents in Stirling have a growing number of full-fibre options now nexfibre is available to around 6,900 homes.
