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.

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 Eltham Town & Avery Hill?
Eltham Town and Avery Hill are well served by full fibre broadband. Full fibre (FTTP) is available here at speeds up to approximately 892 Mbps, putting the area comfortably ahead of the national average: as of Spring 2026, around 82% of UK premises can access FTTP and 89% have access to gigabit-capable broadband. Residents in this part of south-east London can access that infrastructure today through major ISPs including BT, Sky, EE, Vodafone, and Plusnet, all of which resell Openreach's FTTP network.
No specific Openreach expansion announcements targeting Eltham Town or Avery Hill have been reported by ISPreview or other industry sources at the time of writing. Openreach's national build programme is targeting 25 million UK premises by the end of 2026, and their rollout is already live in this area, so the focus for local residents is on switching to a full fibre package rather than waiting for infrastructure to arrive.
For altnet competition, Community Fibre has an active network across significant parts of south and south-east London and is worth checking as an alternative to Openreach-based packages, often at competitive prices. Virgin Media's cable network also has coverage across much of the Eltham postcode area.
One wider change to be aware of: Openreach's analogue phone network (PSTN) closes in January 2027. If you or anyone in your household uses a traditional landline plugged into the old copper socket, you will need to switch to a digital voice service before that date. Most ISPs will handle this as part of a new full fibre package, but it is worth confirming before you sign up.
