M250: like 200Mb broadband, but faster
M250 gives a 264Mbps average download speed, much more than standard 200Mbps broadband.
FAQs
M250 is an ultrafast connection which means you can pretty much do whatever you like! It’s ideal for average sized households where people are online at the same time. With 250Mbps broadband you can game, stream in 4K and video chat, all at the same time.
250Mb broadband is ultrafast. That means it’s great for households who often find themselves online simultaneously.
250Mb broadband is great. With average download speeds of 264Mbps, it can handle multiple people online at the same time.
250Mbps stands for 250 megabytes per second. At Virgin Media, our average download speeds are 264Mbps. With that speed, you can download a film in HD in about 3 minutes, or an entire music album in 3 seconds!
A 250Mbps bandwidth network is more than enough for online gaming! Most online games only need a download speed of about 3Mpbs, so you’ll be racing ahead of the competition.
If you live in a busy household full of avid internet users, then 250Mb broadband is a great option. Having multiple TVs streaming in HD as well as smart devices and mobiles connected to the WiFi can use up a lot of bandwidth, so it’s always a good idea to have extra speed.
Netflix and other streaming providers recommend a minimum speed of 3Mbps for streaming in standard definition, but these speeds may struggle during busy times. Additional speed can help prevent buffering and keep you online enjoying the shows you love.
Our superfast M250 broadband is perfect for households with 10 or more connected devices. You’ll be able to comfortably stream in ultra-HD on 8 devices at the same time and experience no pauses or hiccups.
Zoom only needs 1.5Mbps to be able to chat with high quality video. So, with 250Mbps you’ll be able to enjoy crystal-clear Zoom calls with zero lag, even if someone else is watching a ultra-HD movie in another room.
You betcha! With no restrictions on how much you download or upload each month, you can use the internet as much as you like without having to worry about monthly data usage limits on your account.
