Broadband speeds in DN9
Share of DN9 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 674 postcodes in the district.
DN9 covers Bassetlaw with 674 postcodes and exhibits unusual infrastructure patterns. Its defining feature is fixed wireless prevalence at 54.5%, by far the highest across all 25 postcodes. Roughly half of Bassetlaw's premises use wireless as a primary or secondary upgrade route, indicating significant cable infrastructure gaps. Gigabit sits at 87.1%, respectable but not dominant, lower than most Doncaster postcodes. Superfast is 92.4%, below urban averages. The 5.3% in the 30-300 Mbps band is modest, but high wireless share means postcodes without gigabit cable have wireless fallback options. Below 10 Mbps is 4.4%, a notable tail suggesting infrastructure challenges in some areas. Across 674 postcodes, broadband is diverse rather than uniform. Fixed wireless defines Bassetlaw's broadband market differently from urban areas.
