But &#8220;<em>ultra-fast<\/em>&#8221; connections (100Mbps+) still have a way to go.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The data, which covers the period to January 2013, confirms that Europe is close to achieving its <strong>Digital Agenda<\/strong> target for 100% coverage of <strong>basic broadband<\/strong> services (0.5-4Mbps) by the end of 2013. The situation for superfast <strong>Next Generation Access<\/strong> (NGA) broadband, which aims to offer speeds of 30Mbps+ to 100% of EU homes by 2020, has also improved from 49% last year to 54% now.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ngg-singlepic ngg-none\" alt=\"europe superfast broadband penetration 2013\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/gallery\/2013-internet-statistics\/eu_superfast_broadband_penetration_2013.gif\" \/><\/div>\n<p>The EU also aims for 50% of homes to be within reach of an ultra-fast connection (<strong>100Mbps+<\/strong>) by 2020, although these remain very scarce. So far just 2% of EU homes are within reach of a 100Mbps+ service, although the number of actual connections has doubled from 1.6% to 3.4% (this falls to just 0.9% of all subscriptions in the UK).<\/p>\n<p>However the take-up (subscriptions as a percentage of population) of all fixed broadband services stood at 33.6% for the UK in January 2013, which is above the European average of 28.8%. It should also be said that around 59% of all fixed broadband connections in Europe now provide speeds of 10Mbps+.<\/p>\n<p>On the mobile side, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/3g\">3G<\/a> based Mobile Broadband (HSPA) was available to 98.4% of the UK population in 2012 (96.3% in the EU) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/4g\">4G<\/a> (LTE) availability stood at 17.3% (26.2% in the EU), which is mainly because at that time <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/eebroadband\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EE<\/a> had only just started to roll-out the first national <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/4g\">4G<\/a> network (i.e. the next update will show a big rise). The take-up rate (subscriptions as a percentage of population) of Mobile Broadband was also 84% in January 2013 versus 54.5% in the EU.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Neelie Kroes, EC VP for the Digital Agenda, said: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>I am glad that basic internet is now virtually everywhere in the EU, but we can&#8217;t get stuck playing yesterday&#8217;s game.
