The joys of rural broadband

Last week we were "out" for 8 days, Moles had chewed through a fiber cable in a distribution box linking our house with the neighbours. BT is unable to provide us with an ASDL connection s we are reliant on a Point-to-point service. The problem with this is that there is no line-of-site from any of the towers in the area. Our connection comes from a fiber connection from the house down the road. This seems like over-kill but at least it works. Fiber sounds like we have high speeds, well we don't!
