Lets see what fibre broadband is available to you

What can Standard broadband do for my home?

Standard is our most basic connection, best for small households that only browse the web and email. If you love to video call or often use several devices at once we’d recommend you check out our Superfast, GFast, or Ultrafast Full Fibre broadband instead.

Available everywhere

From the heart of the city to the remotest countryside, wherever you call home, Standard can bring basic connectivity to your door through our existing network of traditional copper phone lines.

Basic speeds

Email and browse the web with upload speeds of up to 1.4Mbps and downloads at 24Mbps. It’s not the fastest, especially if you’re far from our cabinet, because it uses traditional copper cables. That’s why we’ve created a variety of other upgraded networks which use our super speedy fibre optic cables.

    Our most reliable connection

    Ultrafast Full fibre runs a fibre optic cable straight from our exchange to your door, meaning it won't let you down - so no more buffering or drop outs.

    You might also hear Ultrafast Full Fibre broadband called Fibre to the Premise (FTTP), or Fibre to the Home (FTTH).

  • More GFast broadband features

    max 50Mbps upload speed

    You'll be able to send that 2GB file in under 5.5 minutes.

    Digital phone line or no phone line

    We recommend taking a digital phone line that plugs straight into your broadband to make calls. You can also choose not to order a phone line with this service. As part of the upgrade to the UK's digital phone lines, we discontinued the ability to purchase a traditional or public switched telephone network (PSTN) phone line from September 2023.

    It's Superfast, but turbo-charged

    GFast uses the same Fibre to the Cabinet (FTTC) technology as Superfast, but we turbo charge the connection between the cabinet  and your property to give even higher speeds. Because of this, we can usually only offer GFast broadband to homes and businesses that are close to their exchange.

    You might also hear GFast broadband called VDSL2 and sometimes Ultrafast broadband as it offer speeds over 300 Mbps.

    Superfast broadband uses Fibre to the Cabinet (FTTC) technology

    This means that we'll run a Fibre line from your exchange to your nearest cabinet. We then run broadband over the traditional copper wire from the cabinet to your home or business. This means that the further away from you are from your local cabinet, the slower your broadband speed is likely to be.

    Broadband over your phone line

    We use the phone line from the exchange to your home or business to run broadband. The further you are from the exchange, the longer your phone line, which normally means a slower speed.

    You might also hear Standard broadband called Asymmetric Digital Subscriber line (ADSL).
