About
Both ISP and Network Operator – describes itself as a broadband & phone service provider (ISP) that also owns/operates "alternative" networks (in areas where "the Openreach delivered services are poor"). Scotnet Co.UK Ltd was incorporated on 20 November 2000 (Source). Over 25 years the company has operated broadband and phone services across Scotland, offering both residential and business connectivity (Source). Besides delivering services "via Openreach," they "own and operate several alternative networks" for areas where legacy infrastructure is poor (Source). For rural or remote areas, they deploy a mix of fibre-optic cables and line-of-sight radio/fixed-wireless technology to reach premises not well served otherwise (Source). In 2022, deployed a fixed wireless-access (FWA) network on the remote Ardnamurchan Peninsula to provide 35-100 Mbps broadband to ~300 homes that previously had very poor connectivity (Source). Listed among suppliers in the Scottish Government's regional supplier list for the "Broadband Voucher Scheme," showing they offer full-fibre and fixed-wireless broadband services (Source).
