BT turns up broadband speeds

BT intends to roll out fibre-to-the-premises (FTTP) broadband service that will deliver download speeds of up to 300Mbps to as much as one quarter of the UK next spring. Other parts of the UK should be able to access fibre-to-the cabinet services at speeds of up to 80Mbps. BT is investing £2.5 billion to make  fibre broadband available to two thirds of UK premises by the end of 2015, only around a quarter of these will benefit from FTTP.
