Broadband services in uk
Monday, 26 December 2005- Year after year, broadband speed
increases as well as the number of people accessing broadband
increases, giving rise to a broad range of broadband enabled
services. Although, most people are looking for high speed, but
only speed cannot contribute to the development in this
technology. The primary thing is to expand the broadband enabled
services. It is predicted that the two main areas of broadband,
TV and telephony will see a lot of conflict this year. The
anxiety levels are high with regards to for what Internet
service providers and third party organizations have to offer.
The net telephony providers are predicted to compete with Vonage
and Skype to provide telecom services via broadband. Likewise,
BBC and Apple will compete with established Internet service
providers. Experts may observe blogs, podcasts and other
consumer-generated content. The effect of consumers contributing
back to the Internet will also be taken into consideration. With
50% of homes having access to broadband, things are going in
place and it is expected that the technology is going to make it
big. Last year was an interesting year for broadband users in
UK. The offer to double the speeds of 1Mbps for no extra cost
made by BT made their competitors go a step further. Bulldog
increased its speed to 8Mbps and cable firm NTL to 10Mbps. With
the coming of ADSL2+ in the end of the year, a speed up to
24Mbps was assured. With the remote areas left out with lower
speeds, it has become an issue of concern. The limitations of
this fast broadband have raised speculations about how much the
technology can offer. The performance of ADSL2+ depends on how
far the people live from their local telephone exchange and
their quality of telephone line. So before buying the new
service, people should get their telephone lines tested to check
what speed can be supported. Till the next year, around 60% of
homes will have the technology and the demand for high speed
will continue to increase.
