Old copper wires, often up to 100 years old, are not designed to carry data. The UK is being upgraded to Full Fibre Technology, which uses fibre optics (light) to carry vast amounts of data at very high speeds.
Even if you are a 'light user' - sending the odd email, browsing the internet occasionally - Full Fibre Broadband is fast, reliable and affordable.
If you use 'Smart' devices which rely on a stable internet connection - for example, a doorbell, security camera or a smart speaker or device (like Alexa or Siri) - you'll also benefit from this new Broadband technology in your home.
