The latest monthly broadband speed test results have been released for the month of June from broadband comparison website broadband.co.uk.
As is the trend with the previous results we yet again see a slight increase in the average broadband speed that we receive, with this time the average speed being 4.34Mb which is up 0.092 Mb from 4.248 Mb in May.
There is also a tiny increase in the upload speed which now stands at 0.433 Mb.
Virgin Media top the charts showing an average broadband speed of 6.135 Mb, but as they run their own fibre broadband network they are able to offer much faster speeds than the other broadband providers who are still using ADSL and ADSL2+ technology. The headline deal from Virgin Media offers 50Mb broadband!
The second fastest broadband provider is once again O2 Broadband (who also own Be Broadband), however their average broadband speed actually fell very slightly last month to 5.632 Mb, although their upload speed has a very healthy average of 0.748 Mb, which is hugely faster then their next nearest rival, TalkTalk, who have an upload speed of 0.481 Mb.
O2 are an LLU operator and use ADSL2+ technology which means they have advertised maximum speeds of up to 20Mb.
Once again it was AOL broadband who performed slowest knocking up an average broadband speed of just 2.143 Mb.
To test the speed your broadband works at you need to use a free and simple broadband speed test that will show your download and upload speeds so you can see how you fair.
The broadband providers tested are the 10 largest and most users broadband providers which is why some of the smaller ones don’t feature in the results.
