BT Openreach began the first public trials of a new broadband technology called G.fast yesterday. Two thousand homes and businesses in Huntingdon, Cambs will be covered by the trial in the coming weeks. Headline speeds of up to 330 megabits per second (Mbps), more than ten times the current UK average according to BT, will be available to trial guinea pigs.
