Top 9 UK Fastest Broadband ISPs Ranked by Speed for March 2011

Posted: 04th Apr, 2011 By: MarkJ
download arrowComparison site Broadband.co.uk has released its latest anecdotal monthly consumer broadband ISP speed testing results for the past month of March 2011, which saw the average UK internet download speed jump once again from 6.755Mbps in February 2011 to 7.088Mbps now. The average upload speed has also increased from 0.788Mbps to an impressive 0.828Mbps over the same period.

As usual Virgin Media remains top for both download (13.481Mbps) and upload (1.351Mbps) performance, which is thanks in no small part to the strong coverage and uptake of its increasingly fast cable ( Cable Modem / EuroDOCSIS3 ) network. However, most of the improvement this month has come from BT and Eclipse Internet UK.
