Wi-Fi 7 Has Landed (And Yes, It’s as Good as It Sounds) 🚀

We couldn’t not start here. Wi-Fi 7 is officially live, and we’re thrilled to be one of the first providers in the UK rolling it out as standard across all our broadband packages¹. Think silky-smooth streaming, ultra-fast downloads, and no more "Who's hogging the Wi-Fi?!" arguments.

Whether you’re a gamer, a Netflix binger, a Zoom marathoner, or just sick of buffering, Wi-Fi 7 is designed to keep up with your world. And the best bit? It’s available from just £25² a month. Future-ready broadband, without the future price tag.

Not sure what it all means for your home? Our friendly experts are just a click away. Book a chat and we’ll walk you through it.

Local Love: Where We’ve Been Lately 🏡

One of our favourite parts of the job? Getting out there and meeting you—our lovely customers. This spring, we’ve packed up the Connect Fibre van and visited:

• Wirksworth Market

• Thorne Market

• Beaumont Centre, Peggs Green

• Diseworth Village Hall

• Rayleigh Market

• Coleorton Annual Parish Meeting

• The New Storey Pub, Osgathorpe

• Wirksworth Carnival

• Belton Village Hall

From chats about Wi-Fi to cheeky merch giveaways, it’s been great getting to know each community better.

Giveaways Galore: And the Winner Is... 🥁

We’ve had some fantastic giveaways recently, from spa days to gaming goodies. A big shoutout to everyone who entered!

Penny was our lucky winner of the Hoar Cross Hall Spa giveaway, Geoff won a Romantic break to Whitley Hall and Jack is off to Greenwoods Hotel for some deserved relaxation! One lucky winner who really caught our eye? Jack, who walked away with a PS5 Pro and is now enjoying next-gen gaming with next-gen Wi-Fi. Smooth gameplay, no lag, no rage-quits. Dream combo.

More giveaways are on the horizon, so if you didn’t win this time, keep your eyes peeled.👀
