• EE launches new range of full fibre home broadband plans that come with the latest WiFi 7 hub as standard – in move to offer the UK’s best-in-class home connectivity on the UK’s best broadband technology
  • EE’s new plans also offer customers a wide variety of supporting services including WiFi Intelligence – that uses network performance data to keep customers on the best WiFi connection, as well as WiFi Optimiser, Advanced WiFi Controls and Cyber Security powered by Norton
  • The launch comes as research reveals Brits now see reliability as the number one consideration when choosing home broadband over fastest speeds and cheapest price

EE, the UK’s fastest growing broadband provider, today became the first major network to offer all Full Fibre plans built with Wi-Fi 7 connectivity as standard. This move establishes a new best-in-class standard for home connectivity, leveraging the UK’s best broadband technology.

The launch follows new research* which reveals that for today’s households, broadband reliability across the whole home is more important than just speed, with nearly half (44%) of Brits prioritising strong coverage in every room over faster speeds or cheapest price point. Yet despite this need, many are still struggling to stay connected in all areas of the home, with 1 in 3 of households reporting at least one Wi-Fi “dead zone.”

 

THE LATEST WIFI 7 HARDWARE:

As part of the launch, EE has unveiled the new Smart Hub 7 Plus and Wi-Fi Extender 7 Plus, making next-generation Wi-Fi 7 technology accessible to more households than ever before.
The hardware customers receive is linked directly to their chosen speed:

  • For plans up to 1Gbps: Customers receive the Smart Hub 7 Plus (dual band, capable of up to 1Gbps) and the optional Wi-Fi Extender 7 Plus. The Smart Hub 7 Plus offers customers up to 30% faster Wi-Fi throughput compared to the previous Smart Hub 6 Plus, supporting more devices and reduced latency for streaming and gaming.
  • For 1.6Gbps plans: Customers receive the upgraded Smart Hub 7 Pro (tri-band technology, supporting consistent speeds over 1Gbps) and the Wi-Fi Extender 7 Pro, ensuring optimal performance across the home.
     

BEST IN CLASS WIFI FEATURES:

The new portfolio brings a powerful suite of intelligent features designed to deliver a faster, safer, and more reliable online experience at home:

  • Wi-Fi Intelligence: WiFi Intelligence uses real-time network insight to give customers the best possible WiFi coverage and connection quality throughout their home. It works in the background, making automatic improvements like ensuring they’re on the best smart hub or extender channel frequency  – without them having to do anything
  • EE Wi-Fi Controls: A set of features within the My EE app that allow customers to manage their home network’s internet access for parental controls and device management
  • Wi-Fi Optimiser (Included in certain plans): Enhances performance based on how the connection is being used (e.g., gaming, working from home, TV streaming), helping to eliminate lag and buffering during critical moments

As well as security and backup with:

  • Advanced Web Protect: Built-in AI capability that automatically blocks untrustworthy and malicious websites on the network
  • Keep Connected Promise (Included in certain plans): If a fault is reported, EE will send a 4G Mini Hub to reconnect the customer to EE’s mobile network, minimising downtime
  • Cyber Security powered by Norton (Included in certain plans): Gives an advanced level of in and out-of-home protection through social media monitoring, dark web monitoring, and password management for up to 15 devices
  • Connectivity Back-up (Optional Add-on): Switches the household onto EE’s mobile network automatically if a fault is detected, ensuring near-zero disruption
