UK Mobile Broadband Speeds Average 1.46Mbps

Posted: 29th Apr, 2008 By: MarkJ
It might seem slow by some land-line standards but new research has revealed that the average download speed of UK based 'Mobile Broadband' (3G/4G) services, such as those offered by Three (3), T-Mobile, Orange, O2 and Vodafone, is a respectable 1.46Mbps and 0.38Mbps for uploads.

Comparison site Broadband Expert also compared the results with those it recently published for land-line services, which registered an average speed of 2.95Mbps. Not bad for a comparatively new technology:

Operator - Average Download Speed (Megabits per second)
  1. Vodafone - 2.3Mbps

  2. T-Mobile - 1.1Mbps

  3. Three (3) - 1Mbps
Naturally O2 has only just introduced its 'Mobile Broadband' service and as a result was not included. Orange was not included either. However, Broadband Expert has warned operators not to fall into the same trap as fixed-line rivals by advertising speeds far in excess of what customer could expect to achieve.
