About this data
- From Ofcom Connected Nations, a snapshot of fixed broadband coverage in January 2026, based on data from the UK’s fixed network and fixed wireless providers. Coverage figures are for homes (residential premises) and fixed lines only.
- Superfast means 30 Mbps or faster, ultrafast 100 Mbps or faster, and gigabit-capable a full fibre or upgraded cable line that can deliver 1 Gbps.
- “Under 10 Mbps” is the share of homes matched to a network record that can’t get a service above 10 Mbps.
- Full fibre take-up counts homes and businesses using a full fibre service, as a share of all premises that can get one. It can fall when new full fibre is built faster than people switch to it, for example while they wait for a contract to end.
- Ofcom doesn’t publish full fibre figures for individual postcodes, only for council areas and above.
