Vodafone broadband speeds

There are also four full fibre deals available to customers in certain areas – these have average speeds starting at 100Mbps and going as high as 900Mbps.
Does Vodafone put up broadband prices every year?
Yes. If you take out a broadband contract with Vodafone, keep in mind that the price of your deal will increase each April.
In July 2024, Vodafone introduced a fixed price increase. Now if you take out a broadband deal with Vodafone, it will increase the amount you pay by £3 per month every spring.
If you took out a deal before July, your contract will include a price increase that is based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rate of inflation as published in January, plus an additional 3.9%. This means that affected customers saw their bills increase by 7.9% this year.
What is the latest Vodafone broadband router?
Unless you opt to pay extra for Vodafone Pro II, your Vodafone broadband package will come with the Vodafone Intelligent WiFi Hub router, which is supplied free of charge. Vodafone also offers an accompanying smartphone app that lets you manage your router from your mobile. This means you can change your wi-fi password, control when people can get online and even use the 'boost' feature to prioritise speeds for specific devices.

What is Vodafone Pro II?
This is Vodafone's premium broadband add-on that you can opt to include with any of its broadband deals. For £10-13 depending on your package (Vodafone Pay Monthly customers are usually given an additional discount), you'll get access to several extras over and above Vodafone's usual broadband service.
- An upgraded router, Ultra Hub, with Wi-Fi 6E compatibility
- A back-up dongle, so you can use 4G services via Vodafone's mobile phone network if there's a broadband outage – 100GB of data is included.
- A guarantee that you'll have reliable wi-fi in every room. One wi-fi extender is included as standard, but up to three more will be supplied if necessary. However, keep in mind that Vodafone's definition of 'reliable wi-fi' is a download speed of at least 10Mbps, despite its fibre services having average download speeds between 38Mbps and 900Mbps
- A dedicated technical support team available seven days a week
Vodafone Pro II commands substantially higher monthly tariffs than its standard deals, so it's worth weighing up whether you'll really need it before signing up.
