Cable broadband coverage

Posted: Thursday 13th May 2004 by Sam
Long-time readers of the site will know that I have been trying to get coverage data from the two cable broadband providers in the UK (NTL and Telewest for those who don't know!) for some time now.

I'm pleased to say that talks with NTL concluded successfully this morning, and we now have coverage data for their broadband services in the UK. This will bring a number of benefits to the site; Firstly, there will be no delay when performing an NTL availability check - it will be instant! Secondly, the individual exchange pages will be updated to in accordance with this data (the current data is very sketchy). Finally, I will also be able to produce some additional coverage maps. The majority of these updates will take place tonight.

I would also like to add a special thanks to Piers for sorting this all out.

Talks are still underway with Telewest regarding their coverage data, and it is hoped that they too will conclude in the near future.
