| 01 August 2004 - Broadband is here now ! |
 |
All of the exchanges in the Roothings.net area now have ADSL capability, ADSL is the technology that provides Broadband access through your telephone wires. To find out if you can have ADSL click here.
I can get ADSL, now what do I do ?
You can now pick your ADSL supplier, for more information on how to do this click here to visit the ADSLGuide website.
I can't get ADSL, now what do I do ?
Roothings.net is now focussed on enabling broadband access for those people who check their phone number and find they can't get ADSL. We are now working in partnership with local wireless broadband provider w20.net, if you can't get ADSL you can have wireless Broadband NOW!
How do I register for wireless broadband?
Send an email to diane@w20.net with your name, phone number, address and exact
postcode included, or visit the registration website www.w20.net, click the link to register your interest , and w20.net will
be in contact with you.
Why should I want this?
· It’s high speed internet access, you get to websites up to 10 times more
quickly
· You can still talk on the phone when using the computer !
What does it cost?
· For the first 100 subscribers to sign up Roothings.net will provide the user equipment free of charge (a saving to users of over £260).*
(*) You pay the £50 + VAT installation fee and the monthly rental (e.g. a 512 kb/s connection is £29.95 + VAT per month on a 12
month minimum contract)
It's all too confusing please help...
Click here to send us a question or message.
If you can't get ADSL haven’t already registered with us PLEASE contact w20 directly or send roothings.net an e-mail with your name, telephone number and postcode by clicking here.
