Choose the right speed for your home.
The fastest speed isn't always the right speed. What matters is how your household actually uses the internet. We'll help you find the perfect fit — and we'd genuinely rather you saved money than overpaid for speed you'll never use.
How your home uses the internet
Before choosing a speed, think about these factors. Be honest, there's no point paying for 1000Mbps if you mostly browse Facebook and watch Netflix.

Frequently Asked Questions
What broadband speed do I really need?
The right broadband speed depends on how many people use the internet in your home, how many devices are connected at the same time, and what you use them for. Smaller households with light browsing and streaming often find around 80Mbps is enough. Homes with remote work, regular streaming and multiple users usually benefit from speeds between 100 and 300Mbps. Larger or high-demand households may need higher speeds to keep everything running smoothly.
Is a higher broadband speed always better?
Not necessarily. While higher speeds offer more capacity, they are not always needed for everyday use. Choosing a speed that matches how your home actually uses the internet helps avoid paying for capacity you do not use, while still keeping your connection reliable during busy times.
How many devices can a broadband connection support?
Most modern broadband connections can support many devices, but performance depends on how those devices are being used at the same time. Streaming video, video calls and large downloads use more bandwidth than browsing or messaging. If several people regularly do these things at once, a higher speed helps keep performance stable.
Does working from home affect the speed I need?
Yes. Working from home often increases demand, especially if you join video calls, use cloud-based tools or transfer files. Homes with regular remote work usually benefit from speeds in the 100–300Mbps range, particularly if others are online at the same time.
Is upload speed important?
Yes. Upload speed affects video calls, cloud backups, file sharing and online collaboration. Full fibre broadband typically offers stronger and more consistent upload speeds than older technologies, which helps video calls stay clear and responsive.
Can I change my broadband speed later?
In many cases, yes. If your household needs change over time, you may be able to move to a different speed. Our team will explain your options clearly and help you make changes with minimal disruption.
Will full fibre make my broadband more reliable?
Full fibre broadband is generally more stable than part-fibre services, especially at peak times. Because fibre runs directly into your home, it is less affected by distance or local congestion, helping your connection stay consistent throughout the day.
How do I know if my current speed is fast enough?
If your internet feels slow during busy times, you experience buffering or video calls freeze, your current speed may not be a good fit for your usage. Checking how many people and devices are online at the same time can help you understand whether a different speed would improve your experience.
