Voneus full fibre broadband is closing the rural divide, one home after another

Life in the countryside should feel simple. Your broadband should too. Full fibre broadband brings you the reliability, speed and stability that copper can’t match. It closes the rural divide, unlocks local opportunity and keeps you connected to what matters, from crop data to GP video calls.

Why this matters now

This piece looks at what the switch really changes on fields, in front rooms and village halls, and how funding support can make the upgrade easier than you might think. You’ll also find a live price snapshot for St. Clears and clear steps to get started.

What you actually feel when you switch

Full fibre broadband brings a glass thread straight to your home. Speed arrives cleanly, uploads are as quick as downloads, and the usual evening slowdown fades away. Latency drops, so calls feel natural, and cloud tools behave.

If you’ve stretched a copper line across fields or stone walls, you’ll notice the calm first: fewer dropouts, fewer resets, fewer wait-a-minute moments.

When the weather turns, your connection doesn’t

Rain and wind used to mean sketchy service. Fibre doesn’t carry electrical noise, so storms and wet joints don’t play havoc in the same way. The result is steady service when you need it most — lambing livestreams, grain-market updates, schoolwork and council calls.

Farming that runs on better data

Crops and livestock: Soil sensors and weather stations report reliably. Drone imagery and yield maps sync in minutes, not overnight. Real‑time tags reduce losses and make field walks smarter.

Security, without blind spots: Smart CCTV records cleanly to the cloud. Alerts arrive in seconds. You can check gates and sheds from anywhere.

Energy and machinery: Connect heating, pumps and chargers to tariff-based schedules. Push firmware updates to on‑site kit. Keep autonomous and GPS‑guided machinery online across long days.

Care that works from the kitchen table

For anyone managing diabetes or long‑term conditions, reliable uploads matter. Monitors share readings without stalling, and GP video calls stay clear. Telecare devices that depend on a stable link have the connection they deserve.

Keeping village life connected

When the high street gets thinner, the internet fills gaps. You can order essentials, bank securely, study, stream, game, and talk to family without buffering. A solid link helps clubs, halls and small businesses keep the village lively.

FAQs for rural homes, smallholdings and micro‑businesses

Will full fibre work if my mobile signal is poor?
Yes. Mobile signal doesn’t affect your fibre line. You get a dedicated cable into your property.

What happens during installation?
We agree the route, bring the fibre into your home and fit a small Optical Network Terminal near a plug socket. Standard installs are quick and tidy.

Can I keep my home phone number?
Yes. You can add Digital Voice and keep your number. You’ll make calls over broadband. In a power cut, keep a charged mobile as backup.

Can I use vouchers if I’m a farm or small business?
In many cases, yes. Check your postcode and business type.

Is symmetrical speed useful on a farm?
Very. Uploading drone surveys, sending camera footage, backing up milking records and running cloud apps all get faster.

How do I get the best Wi‑Fi in a stone cottage?
We recommend our mesh add‑on for thick walls or longer buildings. Place nodes away from metal or appliances.

Will I need new alarms or care devices?
If you’re upgrading from copper, some older devices may need updating to work over digital voice. Your installer will advise.
