Average speed is the download speed at least half of customers get at peak time (8pm to 10pm). We earn a commission from the provider when you switch through our links, at no extra cost to you. Commission never affects how deals are ranked.

We research the deals for each area using a sample postcode in that area. Enter your postcode to see the deals available at your address, or use our postcode checker for exact speeds.

How Good is Broadband in Hackney?

Hackney gets most of its full fibre from independent networks rather than Openreach. Hyperoptic and Community Fibre both appear in results here, and Virgin Media's cable covers the north and west of the borough.

Across the London Borough of Hackney, 83% of homes can get full fibre, around the UK average. Openreach's own network reaches 48%, and the independents reach more than that.

In Stoke Newington, Clapton and Dalston, most streets have Virgin Media's older cable alongside full fibre, and Hyperoptic serves many of the apartment blocks. Shacklewell has Community Fibre and Hyperoptic together.

In Homerton and Hackney Wick, Virgin Media is largely absent, so the choice is between full fibre networks. Community Fibre has built on parts of both, and around London Fields too.

Alternative broadband providers in Hackney

Across the borough, independent networks cover 64% of homes, above the UK average and more than Openreach manages. Hyperoptic, which wires apartment blocks, and Community Fibre both appear in Hackney results.

Hyperoptic is common in the blocks around Hackney Downs and Clissold Park, and Community Fibre has pockets from Stamford Hill in the north to Hackney Central. CityFibre has not built here.

If your block or street has one of them, compare it with the Openreach providers before you renew.

Gigabit availability, 93%, runs higher than full fibre: Virgin Media's cable network delivers gigabit speeds on streets that have no full fibre. That cable reaches 60% of the borough, mostly in the north and west, from Woodberry Down down to Haggerston and Hoxton.

Openreach's full fibre serves a smaller share of homes here than the independent networks do.

Copper-only lines are down to about one in 200 premises.

Eco impact

Switch smarter & make a difference in Hackney

Every successful switch through Switchity plants two trees through our verified reforestation partner, Ecologi. A mature tree takes up about 22 kg of CO₂ a year, according to the European Environment Agency. Once grown, the 450 trees our switchers have funded could absorb around 9,900 kg of CO₂ a year.
