EX34 broadband and area guide

EX34 shows a more modest gigabit footprint than some neighbouring North Devon codes. Gigabit (300+ Mbps) reaches only 31% of the 659 postcodes. Wireless technology, available at 9.3%, plays a minor role here. Most gigabit and superfast infrastructure comes from wired networks. Superfast (30+ Mbps) reaches 93.3%, nearly universal. The bulk of postcodes (62.4%) sit in the 30-300 Mbps band, typical for rural areas with wired cable or older fibre. Few postcodes escape the broadband net: just 2.8% sit below 10 Mbps, roughly 18 premises. For postcodes outside the gigabit band, expect 40-80 Mbps real-world speeds. The 31% gigabit figure reflects wired deployment concentrated in better-served parts of the district. Connectivity is broadly adequate for most uses.

Two postcodes in three will access speeds between 30 and 300 Mbps. This is solid middle-ground connectivity suitable for home working and casual streaming. Only one postcode in three commands gigabit speeds. The low wireless technology presence suggests that available infrastructure in EX34 is predominantly wired, possibly older copper routes or cable installations.
