Business Broadband
Business VoIP solutions & Essex broadband services tailored for your business
Broadband Internet Access, aka broadband, enable your high-speed Internet access. ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) is a type of broadband. ADSL uses telephone lines but on a different frequency so it can be used at the same time as the telephone.
Download Speed
All Essex Telephone Systems Broadband speeds are offered up to 70Mb/sec but your actual connection speed will depend on a number of factors; including the distance you are from your local telephone exchange and whether that exchange is enabled for fibre.
Upload Speed
The upload speed is the speed at which data (e.g. photographs) are uploaded to the internet. Upload speeds are slower than download speeds. If you are looking for high upload speeds, a private data circuit may suit you as you can upload and download at up to 100Mb/sec.

Internet Connectivity
Leased Lines
Keeping your data online
The way businesses operate these days, having a solid internet connection isn't just nice to have – it's a must-have. Companies in Essex and the Southeast of England need seamless internet access to stay competitive, connect with customers, and keep things running smoothly. But getting consistent connectivity isn't always easy.
Reliable internet is the backbone of modern operations — from chatting with clients and customers to storing data and using cloud apps, a stable internet connection is crucial. It supports video calls, fast data transfers, and uninterrupted access to important business systems. It also makes ecommerce, digital marketing and remote work possible.
But working towards reliable internet has challenges. One big issue for companies in Essex and the Southeast is network delays from infrastructure problems, usually with companies like Openreach.
Openreach, a major UK infrastructure provider, delivers internet to businesses and homes. But when networks fail or have delays it raises concerns about how reliable they are. All too often we are hearing Openreach had an outage across the country that disrupted internet for homes and businesses. This left many companies unable to work, showing how dependent they are on connectivity.
Openreach does maintenance and upgrades on their infrastructure which can cause localised network issues for businesses in Essex and the Southeast. Some businesses have had unexpected downtime during Openreach's work. When physical problems happen like damaged cables or faulty connections it can take Openreach a while to fix it.
How Businesses Are Managing Network Disruptions
- Having a backup internet service ready to go for when the main one fails — a second provider, mobile data (SIM backup), or a secondary failover connection.
- Using different internet providers that don't rely on the same infrastructure, giving options if one network has an issue.
- Using monitoring tools to keep an eye on network performance all the time — catching problems early and limiting downtime.
- Adopting VoIP technology that can quickly switch to staff mobiles via an app, keeping communications running even if the main network fails.
