Superfast is available to 85.4% of LL46, a respectable base for rural Gwynedd, but gigabit reaches only 24.4%, indicating sparse cable deployment. No full-fibre is recorded (0%). The speed breakdown reveals the split: 24.4% enjoy 300+ Mbps (cable), 61% sit in the 30-300 superfast band, and 6.2% fall below 10 Mbps. Below-USO premises are minimal at 1.1%.
