Just been looking at netindex again and noticed it also covers mobile broadband speeds. A quick click shows that Hull is 363 out of 368. Outstanding.

I've managed to get in touch with Wisper, they're sending an engineer next week to check coverage and install the receiver. 10 - 20Mbps claimed speeds with 350GB fair usage limit. Factoring in installation costs over 12 months works out at just over £37 a month. Over 24 months comes in cheaper than KC's cheapest deal. Although that doesn't include phone, I found I was using my mobile more than landline anyway. Also fed up of nuisance calls on landline.

As I said earlier in the thread, none of the wireless providers cover me in West Hull, except Pure. And they can't install till next year.

I'm currently tethering with a Giffgaff (O2) mobile phone. It's painfully slow in the evening, and I only have 3GB of usage, but at least I am being charged accordingly. I'm hoping this fibre supply to the masts will improve three and EE's service, and that in turn will be competition for KC. That can only be a good thing for consumers in Hull. If and when their prices are more realistic, I may consider going back to KC.

Sorry never saw that about not being able to get wireless in your area (KC now do a wireless service as well but it is a business package at the minute www.kcbusiness.co.uk/products/co ... stream-air) There was some good information a couple of years back on the karooforums karooforums.net/index.php?topic=2359.0 about why other suppliers are reluctant to come to Hull.
