As well as fibre, there’s other technologies around like cellular-based services sold as broadband (called fixed wireless) and some homes are still on old copper broadband (called ADSL and VDSL).The Commerce Commission publishes a quarterly broadband comparison report called “Measuring Broadband New Zealand” to help consumers make informed decisions.
The latest report highlights the differences in performance in average download speeds on different technologies. On a 100Mbps (megabits per second - speed) fibre plan, you get an average speed of 99Mbps – so what you would expect and pay for. On a top end fibre plan the average speed jumps to over 708Mbps. Other technologies are much slower – ADSL (9Mbps), fixed wireless (26Mbps) and VDSL (43Mbps).
Speed is the key to good broadband performance and the report highlights this. With fibre, you can successfully stream ultra-high definition video nearly all the time (99%). On VDSL this drops by about 10%, on fixed wireless this will only work two-thirds of the time and one tenth of the time on ADSL. Fixed wireless, ADSL and VDSL can also be prone to performance drops when lots of people are using their broadband service at the same time.Sometimes bad weather can be a factor for cellular-based services. Fibre does not suffer these issues.
Visit our website to find out if fibre is available at your place.
All the best, from your local Enable Fibre team.

Bookworms have coronavirus to thank for a second delay to a popular Christchurch book sale this year.
The Big Bargain Book Sale was due to be held on August 28 and 29 at Pioneer Stadium, but is being postponed again due to the change in Covid-19 alert levels.
Two young women cool off in the Stewart Fountain in central Christchurch in February 1973.
The fountain was later replaced and was a favourite spot for young people until the replacement was also demolished - despite protests that resulted in 13 arrests. Read more here.
Former Christchurch mayoral candidate Paul Lonsdale is one of seven candidates contesting the Central ward at the Linwood-Central-Heathcote community board by-election.
The by-election is being held on October 16. Who gets your vote?
