Ok maybe I should reconsider moving there, last time I visited (just before Covid hit) I had the impression that most smaller settlements have very poor connectivity (both mobile and from talks with people living there).


yeah it's definitely still worth checking where the local cabinets are and distance to any property, but it's possible to get good Internet in most areas, and property (outside of places like Skye that are super-popular with tourists) are a lot lower than cities like Edinburgh.

I've lived here 7 years and gone from using 3 Bonded DSL lines to get 12Mb/s to where I am now over that period.
