If wireless options are something you would consider, I know that NGU are looking at bringing there service to Brough very soon. Just a thought.

If the speeds and latency are anywhere near what you guys are seeing then I will be interested.

Anyone know how they have got the funding? EU funding perhaps but this would constitute State Aid and would be illegal unless they are not going to charge !!!!

I dont think the network dig will start until someone commits to do something?

A friend of mine says MS3 owe him money from over a year ago so he may present them with a winding up order at the presentation on the 16th - thats probably why they have changed their name !!!!

It was a good presentation and a good chance to meet the digging team and see the exact route it would all take.

Couple of people asking questions to try and get a rise out of the guys but they did well to rise above it.

No winding up order served which I doubted as the cost of the order alone means a hell of a lot of money would have to be owed to begin with.

All in all it was ok and I hope they crack on and get it done soon!!

Here is the link to the look north report, skip to just after 12 mins in...
