Supplementary notes

(1) Data have been weighted by ISP package and LLU/non-LLU connections, rural/urban, geographic market classification and distance from exchange to ensure that they are representative of UK residential broadband consumers as a whole
(2) As sufficient sample sizes were not available for consumers on packages of ‘up to’ 2Mbit/s or less, the last data collected for these packages was in April 2009 and this data has been factored in, in proportion to share of all connections in November 2013;
(3) Data collected from multi-thread download speed tests
(4) The above ‘up to’ 10Mbit/s and less than ‘up to’ 30Mbit/s category includes ADSL2+ connections which are not marketed using a connection speed.
* All connections include 'up to' 2Mbit/s and less.
