Vodafone Broadband – UK Guide

Vodafone is well known as a mobile network, but it has also become a strong broadband provider in the UK. Its broadband services focus on competitive pricing, modern routers, and access to full-fibre networks in many areas.

Vodafone broadband is delivered using both the Openreach network and CityFibre, depending on your location.

How Vodafone broadband works

Vodafone uses two different networks:

• Openreach – used in most parts of the UK for standard fibre and some full-fibre connections
• CityFibre – used in selected towns and cities for high-speed full-fibre broadband

If CityFibre is available at your address, Vodafone can often offer faster speeds at better value than many competitors.

Typical Vodafone broadband speeds

• Fibre 2: ~67 Mbps
• Full Fibre 100: ~100 Mbps
• Full Fibre 500: ~500 Mbps
• Full Fibre 900: ~900 Mbps (CityFibre areas)

Availability depends heavily on location, so it’s important to check what services are offered at your address.

Router and Wi-Fi quality

Vodafone supplies modern routers designed to handle multiple devices, video calls, and streaming.

For larger homes, Vodafone also offers Wi-Fi extenders to help improve coverage in rooms further away from the router.

If Wi-Fi performance matters to you, it’s still important to place the router well and consider mesh systems if your home is large.
