I can think of many jobs that can be home based, admittedly needing an office area, and if self employed in one way or another I would call that a business.

Sometimes - a farm
Openreach. Round here, I suppose enough people got on BT's website and clicked the "We want Infinity" so that our exchange got bumped up the list.
There are plenty of people who are not on mains drainage and can't be, not on gas and can't be [1], not on mains volts and can't be. They make their own arrangements.
[1] Like us in our last village. Some people (not us) looked into mains gas, were told they'd have to pay for the pipeline to be laid from the next village. There's no gas here either.
We visited someone approx at 60 40'N, 1 03' 13"W who was running a genealogy website, with three large Mac Pros and some other Macs. Not sure what he did for network access.

You don't need fast internet to fill in forms.
Isn't that a 118118 service?
Also, in my area, writers and artists of various sorts. Designers. IT people. It's amazing what can be done if you have a decent connection.
A number of people in my area have had to go to satellite broadband, in order to handle their business requirements.
I've always wondered why ISPs don't do a line sharing system. What I mean i s that if you have 6 dwellings, say in a terrace, using one ISP, customers could get anything from 1-6x the speed if all those available lines are use d for data. Out in the country a similar scheme might work using fairly sho rt range wireless.

You are not alone.
You can't be near me, because the top of the hill is the good end, and we do have a cabinet. 800 yards from me, and over a mile from the other end of the village...
BT are once again saying "end of the year". For the 3rd year running. But now there's a suggestion that they might install a cabinet in the village.
By the end of _next_ year...
