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 Ilford?

Three gigabit networks cover most of Ilford: Openreach's full fibre, Community Fibre and Virgin Media. On most streets, all three are available.

Full fibre is available at 90% of addresses in the Ilford South constituency, around the UK average. That constituency is the town itself, not the whole of Redbridge, so Gants Hill and Barkingside sit outside these figures.

In Cranbrook and Valentines, north of the station, most streets have all three networks, with Virgin Media on its older cable. Seven Kings and Goodmayes along the High Road are the same.

South of the station, Clementswood, Loxford and South Park have the same three networks on most streets. The gaps are the shopping centre and the newest blocks next to the station, where some addresses have few providers to choose from.

Openreach's full fibre is in at 85% of homes, and Community Fibre overlaps with it across most of the town.

Copper-only ADSL is left at fewer than one in 100 addresses.
