What is fast broadband? And what is broadband speed?
The speed of your broadband signifies the speed at which information transfers from the internet to your computer. So a connection speed of 8Mb can transfer eight megabytes of information per second. That's roughly 160 times faster than a 56k speed dial up connection.
It is worth noting that the speed of your connection only refers to your download speed; your upload speed tends to be slower. Currently, the fastest high-speed broadband available in the UK is 100Mb, a speed that allows consumers to download songs in a matter of seconds and movies in minutes and is only available with Virgin Media.
Unfortunately, the 100Mb service is currently solely on offer in areas where Virgin Media has updated its fibre optic broadband network. However, Virgin Media's 50Mb package is also super fast and is much more widely available. If you're an urban area, there's a very, very good chance of you being able to sign up.

BT's Infinity broadband service features almost as impressive speeds of up to 40Mb, so it too can transform how you use the internet and facilitate speedy downloads of content and massively improve your online gaming experience.

How fast is your broadband?
Test the speed of your current connection on our state-of-the-art speedtest.
Bear in mind that your broadband speed is defined by where you live and depends on a number of factors, including the distance of your house from the nearest telephone exchange. Even if you live just a few miles from a built up area, your broadband speed may drop down as low as 0.5Mb.
Currently, the best way of providing fast broadband is with fibre-optic cables, which is the technology used by Virgin Media. With fibre-optic cables and the 100Mb speeds they deliver, you can kiss goodbye to the days of waiting hours for movies, songs and attachments to download.
Fast mobile broadband
Mobile broadband speeds are still quite inferior to those of home broadband, especially cable broadband. Despite this, mobile broadband speeds have increased and now offer an impressive maximum speed of 21Mb in areas of good 3G coverage.
