Internet access and online security provider Gigabit IQ has today announced that they’ve become the latest ISP to join F&W Networks‘ (Fibre and Wireless) new gigabit speed Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) broadband network, which mostly covers parts of the South East of England.
F&WN has so far managed to extend their full fibre broadband infrastructure to cover 410,000 UK premises (RFS) across various towns in London, Buckinghamshire, Hampshire, Hertfordshire, Oxfordshire, Surrey, and West Sussex. But we haven’t had any further progress updates on this since February 2024 (partly due to last year’s build slowdown).
Meanwhile, Gigabit IQ, which was recently recognised as the Best Rural Internet Provider 2024 by the ISPA and awarded Best OTT Service by the UK Fibre Awards, has previously hooked up with FullFibre Limited and is now extending their UK reach via F&WN’s network.
The provider also integrates safety features like FamilyGuard+ and CyberGuard+ through the Gigabit IQ app, which helps to ensure that households can enjoy safeguards against online threats.
Mashood Ahmad, MD of Gigabit IQ, said:
“Our partnership with F&W is a major step forward in ensuring that families and communities can access high-speed internet that doesn’t compromise on safety. We are passionate about creating a safer digital future, and this collaboration enables us to deliver cutting-edge broadband that empowers households to thrive online.”
José Luis San Martín, F&W Networks’ CEO, said:
“We are thrilled to announce our new partnership with Gigabit IQ, a company renowned for its strong and trustworthy presence in local communities across Surrey and West Sussex. Their dedication to customer support, safety, and security sets a high standard in the industry, consistently going above and beyond to serve their customers’ needs.”
“As Gigabit IQ continues to strengthen its foothold in these areas and expand into neighbouring communities, we are excited to support their journey and contribute to their growth. Together, we aim to drive forward innovation and deliver exceptional value to the communities we serve,”
