Why it matters

Why Reading is switching to full fibre

Most broadband connections in the UK — including many marketed as "fibre" — use fibre cables only as far as the street cabinet, then copper telephone wire for the final stretch to your home. That final copper section is the bottleneck that limits your speeds and causes the slowdowns and reliability issues that many Reading households experience.

Carnival Internet runs fibre all the way to your home — what the industry calls FTTP (fibre to the premises). There is no copper in the chain. The result is faster speeds, symmetrical upload and download performance, and a connection that stays consistent regardless of the time of day or how many people in your street are online.

For Reading residents — whether you are a family in Caversham, a student near the University of Reading, or a professional working from home in Earley — that difference is immediately noticeable.
