Belfast Plots 1Gbps Ultra-Fast Broadband Network

Posted by samzenpus on from the getting-connected dept.

twoheadedboy writes "Belfast is going to get ultra-fast broadband, as plans for a 1Gbps network get going. Belfast's City Council has been guaranteed £6m of the UK government's £100m Urban Broadband Fund, but could receive up to £13.7m if the Government approves its plans. The city plans to get the network up and running in three years, which will make it one of the best-connected cities in the world."

    You can step down to the pub for a pint (or twelve), then browse around to see if anyone's blowing up protestants using flash mobs that night.
