LilaConnect Speed Test FAQ

How fast is LilaConnect internet?

LilaConnect offers symmetrical full fibre speeds from 150 Mbps to 2.5 Gbps via FTTP connections. All plans deliver equal upload and download speeds. The 2.5 Gbps tier is among the fastest residential broadband available in the UK. Since fibre runs directly to your premises, speeds are consistent and not affected by distance from the exchange. Actual WiFi speeds may be lower than wired depending on your router and devices. Run a speed test via ethernet to verify your LilaConnect performance.

Where is LilaConnect available?

LilaConnect is available in select areas where the company or Freedom Fibre has built FTTP infrastructure. Coverage is focused on communities in parts of England that previously had limited broadband options. The network is independent from Openreach, so availability depends on LilaConnect's own fibre rollout. Check the LilaConnect website with your postcode to verify coverage at your address. If your area is planned for build, you can register interest to be notified when fibre becomes available.

How do I test my LilaConnect speed?

Use the speed test tool on this page to measure your LilaConnect download speed, upload speed, and ping latency. Connect via ethernet cable to your router for accurate results. Since LilaConnect provides symmetrical speeds, upload should closely match download when testing wired. WiFi speeds are typically lower due to interference. Test at different times to verify consistent performance throughout the day. Compare results against your plan tier to ensure you are receiving expected speeds.

Is LilaConnect the same as Freedom Fibre?

LilaConnect is part of the Freedom Fibre group. The company originally launched as VX Fiber before joining Freedom Fibre's portfolio of altnet brands. The fibre infrastructure is shared across the group. LilaConnect may eventually be fully merged into the Freedom Fibre brand. For customers, the service experience is similar with the same FTTP technology and speed tiers. Check both LilaConnect and Freedom Fibre websites to see which brand serves your area, as coverage maps may differ.
