How Good is Broadband in Derry?
Derry enjoys excellent broadband coverage with full fibre available to 97% of premises and gigabit speeds reaching 97%. The city is well served by 17 providers, though coverage patterns vary by neighbourhood.
Waterside benefits from strong coverage across most technologies, with both FTTP and Virgin Media widely available. Rosemount, Foyle Springs and Creggan have extensive alternative network coverage from providers like YouFibre and Fibrus, often delivering competitive pricing. Galliagh, Skeoge and Hazelbank see more limited Virgin Media availability, though FTTP options remain strong. Skeoge contains some properties with speeds below 24Mbps, making it one of the few areas where checking your specific address is essential. Glenabbery, Steelstown and Clooney have pockets of Virgin Media's newer RFOG FTTP technology, though this remains limited citywide.
