Network benchmarking provider Ookla (Accenture), which collects data from consumers via their broadband and mobile Speedtest.net service, has published an interesting examination of the performance differences between voice calls handled by the 4G centric Voice-over-LTE (VoLTE) and 5G based Voice-over-New-Radio (VoNR) technologies.

The SpeedGeo project, which compares broadband connection quality by benchmarking the internet speeds of real users, has published their Q3 2026 results and once again named Virgin Media as the fastest fixed broadband ISP. But the study only examined a handful of the largest ISPs, which ignores all of the smaller often faster altnets and retail providers that exist.

Fife-based alternative broadband operator Gigaloch, which had been rolling out a new full fibre (FTTP) network into rural parts of West Cheshire (England) and Scotland until they ran into financial difficulties last year, appears to be suffering a delay to implementation of a Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) – due to the receipt of a secondary preferential claim from HMRC.

The Octopus Inheritance Tax Service (OITS), which is a discretionary investment service managed by Octopus Investments, has revealed that they’re going to split out their fibre broadband assets (i.e. those held by Fern Trading – Vorboss and AllPoints Fibre Network) from other investments.

Homes and businesses in the rural Surrey (England) village of Frensham, which is said to be home to a local population of almost 1,700, have finally been reconnected by Openreach to broadband and phone services.

A new report from the cross-party Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee has warned that the “current TV licence fee is outdated and no longer fit for purpose” and that “all” of the alternatives have drawbacks. The report instead proposes a Household Levy that would no longer be linked to a TV set, could be cheaper than the current licence and would cover other services (broadband?).

Just like last year. Customers of broadband ISP Virgin Media (O2), specifically those who also take their pay TV service and have children, may like to know that the provider will once again be gifting free access to their premium children’s TV channels throughout the whole of October 2026 “at no extra cost“.

In a slightly confusing announcement, telecoms giant BT (EE) has today announced that their pay TV product, BTTV, will be “available from 15 October [2026]” as part of a new-ish bundle that “[brings] together TV, streaming services and premium content in one place, powered by BT’s award-winning broadband“.

London-focused UK broadband operator G.Network, which claims to have built their FTTP (XGS-PON) network footprint to cover 420,000 premises across the city (395k RFS), has today followed our earlier report by launched two new multi-gigabit residential broadband products – HomePro3 and HomePro10 – offering symmetrical speeds of up to 2.5Gbps and 8.5Gbps respectively.

Network kit manufacturer FRITZ!, which is a German developer of home networking products (e.g. FRITZ!Box routers are bundled by several UK broadband ISPs), has today informed ISPreview that they’ve begun to roll-out their latest FRITZ!OS 8.50 software update that includes various new features. Hopefully this will be less buggy than some prior updates.
