What broadband can I get in Bracknell?

Bracknell has seen big improvements to its broadband network in recent years. Between 2020 and 2025, the average download speed in the area increased from around 61Mbps to 355Mbps, thanks to the rapid expansion of full fibre (FTTP) and gigabit-ready networks. As a result, homes and businesses in Bracknell now benefit from faster, more reliable internet connections.

All addresses can now get superfast broadband – generally defined as download speeds of 30Mbps or more. That’s enough for several people to browse, stream and video call at once without buffering. On top of that, full fibre – capable of gigabit speeds (1,000Mbps) – is almost universal, too, thanks to ongoing upgrades from national and local providers.

Coverage and speeds can vary depending on your exact location. Here’s a look at some key postcode areas:
