One million households in the West Midlands will be able to access ultrafast gigabit-capable broadband from March, Virgin media says.
The company says the switch-on of its gigabit services is the largest in the UK, and will be available in Coventry, Birmingham and the surrounding areas. Gigabit technology allows for download speeds of more than 1,104 megabits per second. The average UK speed is 54Mbps.
