Neo network is now ahead with the construction of its fourth Access network in London.

As a result, it can now deliver to its customers with improved timescales and lower costs to deliver high-quality services associated with the company's nationwide UK backbone business network.
Customers of Neos Networks will continue to receive the same level of commitment that they expect from the company, but with an easier path for upgrading, a quicker response for break fixes, and network features that support their needs and aspirations for expansion.
