KA13 broadband FAQs
What accounts for the gap between gigabit (87.7%) and superfast (98.9%)?
Roughly 50 postcodes can reach superfast (30 Mbps) but not gigabit speeds. They sit in the 30-300 Mbps band rather than below it, which is still reliable for most tasks.
Are there any postcodes I should avoid in KA13?
Only 2 postcodes fall below 10 Mbps. If you're considering a specific property address, requesting a formal speed check from ISPs is always prudent.
Do I need gigabit speed in KA13?
Gigabit is available but not necessary. Superfast (30 Mbps minimum) covers routine streaming, web browsing and remote work. Gigabit suits heavy downloaders or households with many simultaneous users.
Why is there no fibre recorded in KA13?
The dataset records the primary access technology. Cable networks deliver most gigabit here. Fibre may be present in pockets but is not the dominant infrastructure.
