Broadband speeds in PO41
Share of PO41 premises by the fastest download speed available, averaged across all 149 postcodes in the district.
PO41 shows island infrastructure limits. Gigabit reaches just 57.4%, leaving 42.6% of postcodes outside cable coverage. The speed profile spans 57.4% gigabit, 29% at mid-tier (30-300 Mbps), and 5.2% below 10 Mbps. Superfast is at 86.4%, meaning 13.6% sit beneath the 30 Mbps floor entirely. This postcode sits at island periphery, where cable termination prevents rural premises from accessing modern networks, leaving them on legacy copper or wireless. Households need realistic expectations: gigabit is conditional, mid-tier is common, and a meaningful tail faces genuine slowness. Planning matters here; remote addresses may need to accept connectivity limits.
