Fibre Checker | Standard Broadband information

Download speeds of up to 24Mbps

Standard broadband is more suited to browsing but download speeds of 24 Mbps mean you can download a 4K movie in 78 minutes or 100 of your favourite songs in four and a half minutes.

Perfect for email and web browsing

Standard can handle surfing the web and checking your email, but if you want to stream the latest box set, connect more than one device at once, or enjoy glitch-free video calls, it’s a good idea to consider Superfast, GFast, or Ultrafast Full Fibre broadband.

Phoneline options you get with Standard Broadband

Analogue phone line An analogue phone line uses the copper telephone network – it’s the system we’ve been using for over a century. While it’s served us all well, it’s time for an upgrade – which is why we’re phasing it out gradually, before switching it off in 2025. It’s worth bearing that in mind when making your choice of which type of phone line you want to use for your broadband.
