What to Look for in a Broadband Provider
- Coverage: Is FTTH (fibre to the home) available at your address?
- Speed tiers: What upload AND download speeds are offered?
- FUP (Fair Usage Policy): Does speed get throttled after a data limit?
- Uptime: What SLA or uptime guarantee is provided?
- Static IP: Is a static IP available? (required for VPN/server hosting)
- Business plans: Separate plans with SLA for business customers?
- Support: How quickly do they respond to outages in your area?
- Installation: How long does installation take at your location?
Home vs Business Broadband
- Home broadband: optimised for download, shared infrastructure, limited SLA
- Business broadband: higher priority support, SLA, static IP options
- Small office: business broadband plan usually sufficient
- Hotel / large office: consider a dedicated leased line instead
- Critical cloud operations: leased line recommended for guaranteed bandwidth
- Multi-site business: leased line primary + broadband backup per location
Key Questions to Ask Your ISP
- Is FTTH available at my specific address, or only cable/copper?
- What is the actual speed guarantee vs advertised speed?
- Is the FUP limit suitable for my usage (streaming, cloud, CCTV)?
- How many business customers share the same backhaul in my area?
- What is the response time SLA for service outages?
- Can I get a static IP for servers, VPN or CCTV remote access?
- Is there a leased line option if broadband doesn't meet my needs?
