Superfast Broadband

/in /by



Dunstall and the surrounding area is not currently supported by superfast broadband.

Recently we understand that Open Reach have upgraded the broadband services to Rangemore and Tatenhill to enable suppliers such as BTs to provide superfast broadband.

Open Reach are gradually replacing current broadband technology with Infinity Fibre Broadband. Unfortunately Dunstall is out of range from the new fibre cabinet installed near the Little India, due to the distance which is supported by old copper wire.

A residents group has been formed are working with Superfast Staffordshire (a partnership between Staffs County Council and BT) to look in to the feasibility of implementing the next generation broadband directly to the houses in Dunstall (Ultra Fast Broadband).  The costs and funding options are currently be assessed.  As soon as the residents group know the details they will provide an update to the rest of the village.
