Most businesses rely heavily on their internet connection. Maintaining constant access to Email and Internet is paramount to daily operation these days and without them we all feel a bit switched off. But most companies don’t realise that broadband is not a guaranteed service!

Ancar B can react quickly to end-user equipment problems but more often than not the issue lies outside of our control on the BT network. At this point we are usually in the hands of a team of Open Reach engineers who are not governed by a Service Level Agreement (SLA) whatsoever. You could be down for ages and there is nothing you can do about it.

If you are unlucky enough to get a problem then you can find yourself in a Business Critical situation very quickly!

If your business relies on the Internet then you should consider a connection that comes with an SLA such as a Leased Line or Ethernet based product, but these can come with large associated costs. If you need a cheaper option then talk to us about our backup ADSL offerings. We can provide multiple ADSL connections carried over separate networks for extra resilience, automatic and manual failover options, store & forward email SMTP feeds and more…

Unfortunately most of our backup ADSL systems are ordered off the back of a major ADSL outage. If you are reading this and rely on your connection then think about getting yourself some cover before you get the problem…?
