EE & BT Broadband Availability Checker FTTP Fibre

Check Your Broadband Speed — Then Make the Most of It

If you’ve been wondering why your internet feels slow — even with fibre — the answer may lie in your home setup. The devices you use and how your Wi-Fi is configured matter just as much as your broadband plan.

This page gives you fast access to the official Openreach fibre checker and shows you how upgrading your Apple gear and Wi-Fi setup can dramatically improve your connection.

Your Apple Mac May Be the Key to Faster Wi-Fi

New Apple devices — especially Apple Silicon Macs, iPhones, and iPads — are equipped with Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 6E, meaning they can handle faster speeds more reliably. But even the best devices need the right setup to work at their best.

  • Modern Macs can outperform older computers — if the Wi-Fi network is correctly configured.
  • Newer iPhones and iPads take full advantage of fibre speeds — but suffer with weak router placement.
  • Many people pay for superfast broadband but don’t get the full benefit due to device or router limitations.

Even if your broadband speed is great on paper, it needs the right foundation in your home to deliver real-world performance.

Why EE’s Wi-Fi Gear Outperforms BT’s

BT Broadband is still common — but behind the scenes, it’s being phased out in favour of EE, particularly for home customers. Here’s what you should know:

  • The EE Smart Hub offers stronger coverage, faster speeds, and fewer dead zones.
  • Switching from BT to EE (even on the same line) can mean a noticeable upgrade in everyday performance.
  • BT’s routers often don’t support the latest standards used by modern Apple devices.

If you’re frustrated with your current setup, upgrading your plan, provider, or hardware could unlock the speeds you’re already paying for.
