Community Fibre Speed Test FAQ
How fast is Community Fibre internet?
Community Fibre offers symmetrical speeds from 150 Mbps to 3 Gbps. Symmetrical means upload equals download, so a 1 Gbps plan delivers 1 Gbps in both directions. This is significantly faster for uploads than Openreach FTTP (which caps upload at 180 Mbps) or Virgin Media cable (which caps upload at 100 Mbps). Community Fibre's 3 Gbps tier requires multi-gig equipment and is among the fastest residential speeds available in the UK.
Where is Community Fibre available?
Community Fibre is currently only available in Greater London. Coverage includes boroughs across North, South, East, and West London, with particular strength in areas like Westminster, Camden, Islington, Hackney, Southwark, and Lambeth. The company focuses on urban areas with high-density housing. Check availability at communityfibre.co.uk using your postcode. If your building is not yet connected, you can register interest to prioritize your area.
How do I test my Community Fibre speed?
Use the speed test tool on this page to measure your Community Fibre download speed, upload speed, and ping latency. For accurate results, connect directly to the Community Fibre router using an ethernet cable. WiFi speeds may be lower due to wireless overhead. Community Fibre provides symmetrical speeds, so upload should closely match download. The test takes approximately 30 seconds to complete.
How does Community Fibre compare to Hyperoptic?
Both Community Fibre and Hyperoptic offer symmetrical FTTP in London with similar speeds up to 1 Gbps. Community Fibre pricing is generally £5-10/month cheaper and extends to 3 Gbps. Hyperoptic has broader coverage beyond London in other UK cities. Both require your building to be connected to their network. Speed and reliability should be comparable as both are genuine full fibre. Choose based on availability at your address and current promotional pricing.
