Just 4,000 homes connected under the plan this year.
The National Broadband Plan has made 'effectively no progress at all', according to Irish Rural Link.
It's after it was revealed that just 4 thousand homes have been connected under the plan so far this year - well short of it's target of 115 thousand for 2021.
