Lightning TV. All the TV you need

We are a brand-new, community minded Full Fibre Internet Service Provider based in Eastbourne, East Sussex.

We are dedicated to bringing you hyperfast and hyper reliable 100% full fibre broadband, replacing the slower copper used by other providers.

We are an independent company, based in Eastbourne.  We are not reselling the Openreach Network, unlike the major ISPs. We are operating a 100% full fibre network (FTTP). You, the customer, deal with us all the way through.

We are also partnered with City Fibre and act as an ISP (internet service provider) for them, which means that in areas where we do not operate our own Full Fibre infrastructure, we can access the City Fibre network instead.

The main type of broadband connection most network providers use to link the local telephone exchange to your house is ‘FTTC’ (fibre to the cabinet). This uses a fibre optic cable to the cabinet, but then copper cable from there to your house. This means that there is a fast connection to the cabinet, but their networks then rely on a comparatively limited and slower copper connection from the cabinet to your home. And the further your house is from the cabinet, as well as the age of your copper cable, the slower the connection.

Instead, Lightning Fibre uses next generation Full Fibre broadband or ‘FTTP’ (fibre to the premises) - a fibre optic cable connected directly from our own ‘exchange’, to your home without using any copper cable. It’s the thickness of a single strand of hair, can go miles and is delivered by light not electric current.  It’s the latest, fastest and most reliable broadband technology which only the fortunate few can get.

Download speed is the rate at which you can receive data from a source, on the Internet to your modem and computer or other devices in your home or work. Similarly, the upload speed is the rate that data is sent from your computer or other devices to a destination, on the Internet.

Speeds are measured in Megabits per second (Mbps) and in the case of our top packages, Gigabits per second (Gbps). 1,000 Mbps = 1 Gbps. To add some context, East Sussex has an average download speed of 30Mbps*

We’re not only bringing you a lightning-fast Full Fibre experience, we’re also delivering it at an incredible price. We beat the mainstream provider’s ‘Superfast’ and ‘Ultrafast’ packages which give you slower speeds – especially when it comes to uploads.
