I live in the middle of nowhere. My connectivity limited to copper cable speeds and no hope of fibre coming. Ash and his guys really know their stuff. A clean job, done quickly and efficiently. I now have 250 MB/s. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

I would not hesitate to recommend AC Digital Technology Limited. Ash promptly visited my house to assess the optimum way to get wifi to the garden and summer house. A few days later he returned and installed a non intrusive mesh system that more than met the requirement. The service I received was first class, the price was fair and reasonable. His attention to detail was impressive and reassuring. A great company!

We use Ash and his team for a wide range of IT support day to day and installations. Efficiency in these areas is where they excel in. Always quick to response, clear resolutions communicated and timely resolved. But it’s not just the day to day that Ash and his team excel in, from start to end of a installation job whether it’s CCTV, office wifi and broadband set up they go about the job with the upmost professional manor and are never late delivering a project.

Joe Hooper

Can’t rate Ash and his levels of professionalism high enough. Completely genuine and goes above and beyond by far. Going from download speeds of 10 mbps and now seeing 150/250 mbps with Starlink has been a game changer.Ash didn’t stop until we were reaching full capacity of speed. Thanks again Ash for your fantastic levels of service and being such a likeable chap. Will continue to recommend.

After years of frustration I now have a reliable and relatively fast internet connection. Ash Cox responded quickly to my initial enquiry and organised a survey of my home. He quickly concluded that there was a viable connection and arranged installation, which was carried out promptly and efficiently.I cannot speak highly enough of Ash who clearly knows his stuff and has excellent interpersonal skills - a pleasure to do business with. Thank you.

Simon Little

Installed Starlink and 4G Internet, and Ruckus wifi system. Very professional, fast, prompt to appointments, and returned calls. Went above and beyond. Could not have asked for better. System giving reliable superfast broadband where no fibre connectivity. Highly recommended.

Craig Viljoen

Ash is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the products he installs. Nothing is too much of a hassle for him. Despite receiving faulty equipment from the supplier it was never too much hassle for him to come back and reinstall the replacement equipment at no extra charge, despite the issues not being of his doing. I would definitely recommend his services without any hesitation!!

Louis Jenkinson

Called Ash to ask him to sort out my Sky boxes, they were not meshing and my internet was constantly dropping out, he was able to provide a solution meaning I could do away with the boxes and still have broadband and a fully working Sky, brilliant service and would definitely recommend.

We recently began a journey of sale and purchase in property and almost pulled out of buying our beautiful potential home as there was very little or no internet on the property and we couldn’t get starlink to sell us the dish to connect to their service. Luckily in the depths of despair my husband came across Ash on the internet and he replied extremely quickly to my husband query! He enabled us to purchase the starlink equipment for our potential house, explained that for the time prior to him coming we would be able to plug and play and it is no word of a lie when I say that plug and play worked as good if not better than normal internet with obstructions but once Ash and Matt that helps him install came round to our newly inhabited property they were able to make the connections within the home millions of times better. We now have starlink throughout our home which is quite long and with numerous rooms and he has also got the internet across the drive area and into the barn which is a way from the main house. Ash and Matt were extremely quick and professional and we are extremely glad the my husband came across him. Thank you ACIT Consultancy.

Tom Johnson

08:58 28 Apr 22

I recently moved to a rural location with little to no internet options.I work from home a lot of the time so it was important that I was able to secure a decent internet connection.Before the move I found Ash using a google search. He could not have been more helpful and laid out the possible options I had. His response time to my 'regular' questions was incredible and he always had a very detailed and informative answer. We decided to go for the Starlink option as this was our best option for getting good internet. We arranged for him to come out to the new property the day after we had moved in and by the end of day it was all set up. The process could not have been easier.Ash was a genuine and really nice guy and easy to talk to.I would highly recommend to anyone who is after someone who offers a wealth of friendly knowledge regarding rural internet and provides a professional and tidy service.

Jane Skipper

11:30 18 Mar 22

Ash was quick, competent and knowledgeable. Initially we had some problems with the internet dropping out persistently after install, but Ash worked relentlessly to find and solve the problem at no extra cost. Now have far better provision than I’ve had before!

Rosie Hawkridge

23:05 15 Feb 22

Really great service, our internet had completely stopped working and we were back up and running in a few hours with great speeds throughout our very old house!

William Lacey

14:26 14 Feb 22

Ash has completed an excellent install and at no time did I feel pressured into accepting additional upgrades. His advice was always extremely helpful in my decision making and his patience whilst I decided which route to go was exemplary. Highly recommend his services.

ACIT installed a 4G antenna in our farmyard where no broadband service was available. They were fast efficient and very professional

chris henry

Having battled to find a solution to rural rubbish Internet and with the pressure of 2 adults working from home and 4 kids who believe the world ends without connectivity I set about finding a solution. I would love to enlighten you with the correct search term that found Ash but if you’re reading this then it’s moot anyway. I left a message he called back same day and we chatted through potential solutions. He does seem to know a fair bit. He pointed me at the Starlink option. Managed my concerns re latency etc but agreed to visit the next day to also explore 4g. I did my own research and realised I could get Starlink straight away which it’s rare. He still visited. We talked through options. He told me what it I needed and 6 days later I’ve gone from 7meg download & 1 Meg upload to 300meg and 18meg respectively. Is it Cheap? No. Is it worth it? Absolutely. Ash came out and helped install it. Sorted out the router location etc. Best money I’ve spent and not just on the kit but on Ash.

annie cox

Ash was prompt, professional and friendly. He explained the job well: clearly and well-matched to my level of expertise. His work was speedy and tidy, and very reasonably priced. I will definitely use him again.

Jamie Bachelor

14:42 17 Jan 22

ACIT are a great outfit and Ash is always so informative and talks through all the work he does.It helps for those of us who are not so IT literate. He has in-depth knowledge and always has options/ solutions. I would recommend him to others.

NJT Wanderlust

08:39 17 Jan 22

Having been let down badly by our previous internet company, we decided to go with 4G. We contacted Ash at ACIT and arranged for him to fit the 4G system as we are in a poor signal area and needed an external ariel. Ash attended on time and spent some time finding the right spot for the ariel. We later asked Ash to set up and install our Starlink satellite internet which he did again with complete professionalism and talked us through how to merge the two systems so that we would always have an internet connection.We cannot recommend ACIT enough, a complete service that will have you up and running in no time.

Michele Hardiman

11:53 16 Dec 21

We used Ash at ACIT to set up our work computer and have been delighted with the results of our new computer system and the security. Ash took the time to ensure we were able to operate it and continued to be there if we had any questions, often just checking in. We’ve been operating this for a year with great results. On a personal level I recently consulted about a laptop and found him to be extremely helpful.

Oliver Lewis

14:57 26 Nov 21

Highly recommend ACIT. Ash carried out several surveys to evaluate 4G broadband in our rural location in Somerset. He was extremely professional and knowledgable throughout and could not recommend highly enough. Thanks again

Simon Ballantyne

14:35 05 Nov 21

Ash and the ACIT team are great, they have looked after our IT systems for 4 years. They are highly trusted and can work against the high cyber security demands we place on our systems and services.From Cloud and on Prem servers, network and Microsoft products Ash keeps us using best practice and our systems running smoothly.

Found Ash Cox through a web search for Somerset based IT assistance. quick to respond and came on site promptly as agreed (which is already unusual).He quickly identified the issue proposed a number of solutions. I liked he was aware of budget concerns at all times.In the end we arrived at an excellent set up which was to resolve major shortcomings in speeds both to our (rural) premises and the network within and ironed out some small niggles promptly no fuss.Only concern is he explains things very fast but then again we are perhaps not that up to speed.Would recommend him anytime.

Michael Redwood

11:24 26 Oct 21

Great experience with Ash. He is very knowledgeable, and responsive to all of our IT problems and his support to date has been excellent. Would highly recommend.

Tony White

20:13 22 Oct 21

We have struggled with dreadful broadband connectivity in a remote location until Ash delivered us a superb solution. It is giving us great connectivity combining 2 providers with a high level of resilience at a affordable price. Ash gave great advice, delivered the solution quickly and continues to provide high quality support if required. Anyone with poor broadband and or difficult Wi-fi conditions should contact Ash, he will be the help you need.

Sian Collins

15:07 01 Sep 21

For years we suffered with the blue circle of doom until we had no hair left. We called 'experts' who mostly just did not turn up until we struck gold with Ash. He responded immediately and within a matter of days we had a plan to replace all three of our broadband's with a network based on starlink. Ash sourced everything we needed and came over to install . His knowledge of the equipment was second to none and within hours we had gone from speeds of 1 to 200 plus. Not only that he organised it so we could obtain this over our entire site - three separate buildings and a stable block! A thoroughly proficient and nice guy so much so he left us as a friend we thought we had known for years...a must!

Mike Palmer

09:40 16 Aug 21

I live in a remote area with appalling internet of sub 1mbps. Sky had told me no solution! I rang Ash who came out that same day and after surveying the house and location said I could get decent 4G or Starlink. I decided to future proof speed and went with Starlink. The dish came within a week and Ash installed a few days later. I now have speeds in excess of 150 mbps! Throughout house and garden which is 1 acre. This is transformational for our tv viewing and homework etc. We owe Ash a huge thank you for all he has done for us! I would highly recommend his services.

Beach junkey

08:50 13 Aug 21

Ash absolutely put to bed years of BT rubbish internet. Being in a rural area, just 1mile from super fast broadband is frustrating & expensive to bring in.Ash came and done a free survey and found we could get double figure speed via 4g. It was a no brainier. He connected us up, troubleshot the Sonos that was being awkward and has left us with great internet with very few interruptions. All hail Ash! A superstar🙌🏻 Will definitely use agin if needed for expanding. Cheers 👌🏻👌🏻Before & after pics below. Enough said 👏🏻

Richard Bruce

16:19 17 Jul 21

Ashley helped us obtain a decent internet service where all others failed. From prehistoric dial up speed to a reliable 20+Mb service. Enough to keep us going until FTTP makes it into rural Somerset! Nothing to lose by having him round for a free site survey. Thanks Ash

Rupert Stuart-Baker

13:59 03 Aug 20

Ash at ACIT Consultancy is excellent. He offers fantastic IT knowledge solutions, often bringing technology previously only available to large global companies.

Why Use ACITC?
It's Simple..

Ash and his team at ACITC provide next generation broadband for rural & poor internet connection areas. The mobile carriers provide 4G internet to 99% of the UK for residential, self employed and business customers. Our installation turnaround services deploy rapidly in areas where fibre or other cabled broadband cannot reach the customer.

Survey to install turnaround is usually a few days, ACITC will have you running in no time.

Straight forward advice and a free survey* with a bespoke quote to fit your property out with faster wifi.

A survey visit will show us both what signal quality and speeds are available for your property on all given carriers (Vodafone, o2, EE, Three).

ACITC offers different packages for residential and business customers. Get in touch and Ash will advise the best carrier for you.

ACITC work is backed with a 14 day cooling off period – if the solution doesn’t work, take your money back!

How does your new antenna work?

Mobile broadband relies on having a good reception. However you cannot assume the signal in your phone is comparable to what we achieve with an antenna.
It is recommend to use www.cellmapper.net to check locations of masts in your area. This is a trusted open source that has confirmed sighting and data interpreted mast locations.

The interactive map provided by Cellmapper allows you to filter carrier and type (3G, 4G, 5G etc). Showing mobile network quality all around the Globe.

Click the image below and see just what 4G carrier masts are nearby your property.

99% of the Mobile Broadband surveys are performed in an area where there is poor quality internet (ADSL limited to 1Mbps upload bandwidth) and no fibre solutions are available to consumers, even if there is fibre in the road outside!

The high gain antenna points to a cellular mast (example pic) and is able to exceed expectations, as an example – increasing one customers broadband from 1mbps to a consistent 60mbps+ download and 30-40Mbps upload. Some 4G installs are even capable of 100Mbps in certain areas.

Examples of a typical install achieve 30-40Mbps download and upload, depending on carrier. Combined with a Ruckus Access Point and portable AC mains the survey can be anywhere on your property and give you a real world feel for what your investment will do.

This is sometimes an art rather than a science. For example sometimes stronger signals are found bouncing off buildings or into spaces you wouldn’t expect a signal to be as strong.

Carrying Vodafone, EE and Three Data SIMs to survey with, ACITC will find the fastest throughput for you. You can test any devices you have quickly and easily thanks to the strong Ruckus WIFI used in the survey.
