This file is based on a snap shot of data provided by the largest fixed broadband providers in the UK for the period of June to July 2013. Due to variations in broadband performance over time, the file should not be regarded as a defintive and fixed view of the UK's fixed broadband infrastructure. However, the information provided in this file may be useful in identifying variations in broadband performance by geography and the impact of superfast broadband on overall broadband performance. The file should be viewed in conjunction with the Infrastructure Report published by Ofcom in October 2013, which details how each of the metrics is defined.
