broadband options

Rural Shropshire, and the Welsh Borders to the west of the County, are currently less well served with high-speed fibre.   In these areas, although connection options may be limited. . .  broadband is still an especially important consideration for the agricultural sector and rural business such as guest houses, hotels and tourist attractions.   Out of town shouldn't mean out of touch!

To find out what your broadband options are, follow the links below for plain English descriptions of each, including the download speeds you can reasonably expect. . .  and their likely costs.

ADSL BROADBAND  (Broadband delivered via your existing phone line )

farms & agriculture

For farmers and growers across the region, reliable broadband has become a business essential;  increasing efficiency and competitiveness, whilst providing many security benefits.

With valuable equipment and livestock to protect, farmers across Shropshire and the Welsh Borders are increasingly looking toward satellite broadband which, despite its higher cost, is still far more affordable than dedicated radio links.

Although Government is working on initiatives to improve rural connectivity, the current options (with varying suitability depending on location and needs ) offer other alternatives.

Having already implemented several solutions using line-of-sight broadband 'repeaters' to extend coverage (see; wi-fi extenders ), oztech will carry out a connection survey of your location and provide you with a fully costed proposal, free and without obligation.
