    Virginmedia are very reluctant to dig up private roads.

    Ask Openreach for a FTTPoD cost.  I think it's an initial £250 non refundable cost for the quote.?  Be prepared to have deep pockets.  You might be better off with a 4G/5G router and an external aerial for best signal.

      This is the way. Sadly I think it's more like £500 and even then there's only a small number of ISPs that offer the FTTPoD service. A&A being the only one that comes to mind.
