Barton Dock Road. I'd avoid Junction 9 and Park Way for a bit. I mean, I'd avoid them anyway, but ... y'know.

Also the Met runs along the road infront of the hotel and pub.

Recently posted in another sub about finally finding my 5G mobile internet routers sweet-spot. However, I can FINALLY get a hardline internet connection at my flat.

Still got another year left on the Sim contract, so for budgetary reasons I would be going with the entry FTTP package, and only getting 119 down and 19 up. Once affordable with not paying for 2 Internets, I'd go up to the 944 down and 110 up package.

But with these pictured speeds. Should I just wait another year, and go straight to the Gig FTTP package? Feel like a proper rock and hard place. Speed is good and consistent now. But mobile internet is fickle etc...

In that other year of waiting, there is a separate company that could be in our area by then. Symmetrical 1Gig for the same price. My mother has this other service at her place, and it truly is consistently that speed. It's insanely good.

In before anybody asks. Sorry, those Mobile 5G speeds are because I'm not actually rural. I'm just kinda in this weird landlocked shituation. River to the south, ship canal to the west and north, motorway to the east and north (they intersect), rail cutting through the middle. The copper exchange is full, guessing because it was put in when it was all single family units, and a bunch of flats now exist. So getting the permission to dig up the only access roads, must also be a nightmare. Phone signal hella good though, go figure.
