Before you sign up for any new contract it’s worth considering how fast your broadband really needs to be as not everyone needs superfast speeds. If you have a busy home or spend hours on Netflix and video calls then it’s worth opting for an improved service. However, if you simply browse the web and send a few emails then a basic plan should suit you just fine.

A QUICK GUIDE TO DOWNLOAD SPEEDS

If those speeds are leaving you a little baffled then here’s a very quick guide to what’s best for your needs.

Basically, the more videos you stream, games you download and video calls you make the faster the speeds you’ll need.

Your broadband is a bit like a motorway – the more traffic that runs through it the slower it gets.

So, if you have a busy house it’s best to get the fastest speeds you can afford to avoid annoying buffering.

A standard 35Mbps can cope with streaming Netflix quick easily however, download a new PS5 game and you’ll wait over 3 hours before you can play it.

Switch to a 75Mbps connection and that same game will take just 1 hour and 30 minutes to arrive.
