I fell into that trap once - rented in a listed building with ADSL that will never be upgraded.

Now Hyperoptic (a Gigabit provider) is my second question for any letting agent or landlord, without it head straight for the door.

Hyperoptic is lightyears ahead of anyone else, because they offer 1 Gbps synchronous broadband. Synchronous is the key here, because absolute majority of other providers usually only offer upload speed that is 10-20% of download speed.

I have AT&T 1Gbps fiber both up and down on my street here in the US. I agree it is blazing fast.
