Hello all,
I'm currently looking to changing broadband providers here in the UK and at this time I am subbed to a 500Mbps package.
Would be interesting to see what speeds other people are subbed to and why.
Comments welcome and if you're in the UK it would be great to know who your ISP is (mine 500Mbps @ BT).
Thanks!
As I live in the UK then currently on Plusnet.
I have there unlimited fibre extra which is upto 66mbps but actually get 71.35 on test just now. 18mb up.
have good connection to exchange, so above what they claim is there average.
It is fast enough as live on own so really don’t need faster.
can stream a movie to iPad and online game at the same time without issue.
work from home and is more then fast enough, I used to be on a 52mb package which was legacy as when joined plusnet then openreach had fibre one, upto 36mb and fibre 2 upto 72.
however plusnet just bough the 80/20 from openreach and throttled to 40 but you still got 20 up.
to move off they upgraded to 52mb/10mb offering.
even the 52mb was enough.
plusnet don’t offer full fibre but have started offering the fibre broadband without telephone line however find useful as parents with Plusnet so 60min call each other for free.
if family then would probably want more so everyone can stream / download but I find what have is fast enough.
