If your broadband speeds are slowing you down, good news could be on its way. One of the biggest rivals to BT has just announced a huge boost to its infrastructure which will see customers offered downloads in excess of 2.5Gbps - that's over 25 times faster than the current UK average.
The XGS-PON cable upgrade is being rolled out by CityFibre with the firm promising that millions of homes will be able to access the improved connection in the future.
In fact. by the end of 2023, CityFibre expects to have deployed its XGS-PON equipment into over 90% of its fibre exchanges with the new 2.5Gbps product becoming available to around 20% of its ready-for-service footprint, currently standing at 2.5m homes. That number of properties is expected to grow to 8 million by 2025.
