Fixed Line Broadband Availability in the Hull Area
Hull is a special case for broadband and telephony due to not being covered by British Telecom. To find out how this affects broadband, read on.
Broadband and telephone lines in the Hull area are supplied by Kingston Communications aka Kcom and the ISP Karoo. Although Kcom have opened their network to other providers, currently no third party suppliers have found it economically viable to move into the area due to the non-standard cabling Kcom uses.
Most of the fixed line products listed on this site are provided over either a BT phone line or via Virgin Media's cable network, as such these are not available in the Hull area. The exception is the Satellite Broadband provider Tariam, as these products are available everywhere in the UK albeit with a very expensive connection and equipment cost.
If you're in the Hull area, your best option for fixed line broadband is Kingston Communication's Karoo ISP.
If you don't wish to go with Karoo, you could also try mobile broadband deals. A full list of products that should be available in the Hull area are listed below. These include mobile and satellite broadband deals.
