Montgomeryshire and Glyndwr Broadband Coverage

Montgomeryshire and Glyndwr is a Westminster parliamentary constituency in Wales with 50,437 premises. Full-fibre (FTTP) broadband is available to 74.3% of premises — broadly in line with national trends for a UK constituency. The gigabit-capable figure of 74.3% is typically higher than full-fibre because it includes premises served by upgraded cable (DOCSIS 3.1) networks where a full-fibre connection is not yet available. Superfast broadband (≥30 Mbit/s) covers 90.7% of premises, and ultrafast (≥300 Mbit/s) reaches 74.4%.

On connectivity for all households, 1.6% of premises fall below the USO standard of 10 Mbit/s — a relatively small but nonetheless significant proportion representing households without reliable broadband. The ge300 column shows coverage at the 300 Mbit/s threshold — 74.4% of premises can access this tier — which is relevant as Ofcom's ultrafast threshold may be revised upward in future reporting cycles as gigabit networks become the standard.

Figures are drawn from Ofcom's Connected Nations 2025 report (July 2025, r01), which aggregates postcode-sector data to constituency level. They represent coverage availability from at least one network operator — not the proportion of households that have subscribed to a given speed tier, nor the typical or guaranteed speeds that customers actually receive.
