BL and WCII staff - from BTs new ADSL signup site:-

Second, ADSL (which powers BTopenworld) is distance dependant which means that service degrades significantly where your premises are beyond 3.5 km (approx.) from the local exchange. We will check this to ensure that you line supports the full service before going ahead with providing service.
Around 85% of the UK population live within this distance from their exchange.


I wonder what the figure is for the US? And I wonder if the 85% figure for Britain is also accurate?

Best regards,
