Caversham Heights sits within Reading, one of the better-connected towns in the South East.

The main full fibre network in Reading is built and operated by Openreach, which means most major ISPs including BT, Sky, Vodafone, Plusnet and EE can sell services over it. Openreach has confirmed its national build programme is targeting 25 million UK premises by end of 2026, with coverage in urban areas like Reading largely complete. No specific Openreach expansion announcement for Caversham Heights has been published at the time of writing.
Reading also has a presence from CityFibre, an independent altnet that has been building its own full fibre network in the town. CityFibre's network is separate from Openreach and opens up additional ISP choices, including Vodafone and Zen Internet, which may be worth checking for your specific postcode.
One change affecting all households is the PSTN copper phone switch-off, now confirmed for January 2027. Openreach has stated there will be no abrupt disconnection for those who have not yet switched to a digital voice service, but all landline users will need to move to a VoIP-based alternative. If your home phone still runs on the old analogue network, it is worth contacting your provider before the deadline.
