About Broadband in Eastcott

Eastcott is in Swindon. Full fibre broadband is available here, with typical download speeds of around 885 Mbps, well above the UK average of 69 Mbps. Most major providers cover the area, so there is a reasonable amount of competition on price.

Standard broadband runs over the copper phone network. Speeds depend on your distance from the telephone exchange and typically range from around 5 Mbps to 20 Mbps.

Superfast broadband (FTTC) uses a fibre optic cable to your street cabinet, then copper for the final stretch to your home. Most urban and suburban areas can get speeds of 35 to 80 Mbps.

Full fibre (FTTP) runs fibre optic cable all the way into your home. It is the fastest and most reliable option available, with speeds from 100 Mbps upwards.

What's Happening with Broadband in Eastcott?

Eastcott is a residential area in central Swindon with access to full fibre broadband via Openreach's FTTP network, delivering typical download speeds of around 885 Mbps. That puts it well ahead of the UK national average: gigabit-capable broadband now reaches roughly 89% of UK premises, while full fibre (FTTP) specifically covers around 82%, according to Ofcom's Spring 2026 figures. Eastcott sits comfortably within that covered majority.

No specific Openreach rollout announcements for Eastcott or central Swindon have been published by ISPreview or Openreach at the time of writing. Swindon as a whole has benefited from Openreach's wider South West England build programme, and Eastcott's central location means it was among the earlier parts of the city to receive FTTP infrastructure. CityFibre has also been active in Swindon, meaning some streets in the area may have a choice between Openreach-based ISPs (BT, Sky, Vodafone, EE, Plusnet and others) and CityFibre-based providers such as Vodafone and Zen Internet. It is worth checking both networks when comparing deals.

One change that will affect all Eastcott residents using a landline: Openreach has confirmed the old copper PSTN phone network will be fully switched off in January 2027. If you still use a traditional phone line, you will need to move to a digital voice service before that date. Your broadband provider can arrange this, and it is typically included with any current FTTP package.
