  "textContent": "\n\n\n\nEE will supercharge broadband connections to some of the fastest speeds seen in the UK **— at no cost**.\n\nFor a limited time, EE will supercharge download speeds **up to 8Gbps**. That's 32x faster than the average UK household broadband speed, as measured by Openreach last year.\n\n  * **Sign-up to EE 8Gbps broadband for FREE + recieve £100 Amazon.co.uk Gift Card**\n\n\n\nWhether you're looking to stream the latest Hollywood blockbusters or must-binge boxsets in 4K Ultra HD, play fast-paced video games with people across the globe, download software updates, back-up your photos to the cloud, make FaceTime calls with friends and family, or _all_ of the above... that amount of bandwidth will _never_ struggle.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nThe free upgrade is part of a nationwide trial, starting this month, to test how its next-generation broadband speeds will perform in real homes. If you're chosen for the boosted broadband, it'll run for a minimum of three months.\n\nEE will send out one of its own Wi-Fi hubs, which **were recently refreshed with support for Wi-Fi 7 as standard** across its lineup – the first broadband supplier to do so, or a third-party model to connect to either a 2.3Gbps or 8Gbps download service. In exchange for the free upgrade, EE will gather performance insights across different usage needs to help inform its roll-out of these supercharged speeds in future.\n\n### LATEST DEVELOPMENTS\n\n\n\n\n  * **NordVPN and CyberGhost can't compete with latest ExpressVPN sale **\n  * **Best VPN deals **\n  * **Oura Ring 4 rival unveiled — featuring massive 15-day battery life******\n  * **iPhone Air review **\n  * **One billion people have now upgraded to Windows 11 ******\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nDuring the three month trial, EE will check-in with participants to manually gather feedback and understand how its ultrafast speeds impact day-to-day life. Consumers who complete the trial will not only receive the service free for a minimum of three months, but they’ll also receive a £100 Amazon.co.uk voucher.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nEE will use the new XGSPON network technology to deliver ultra-fast speeds. To minimise impact to existing connectivity, EE says it will – where possible — install a separate line dedicated to the XGSPON service.\n\nThis allows customers to test the new technology alongside their current provider without affecting their everyday internet access. At the end of the trial period, the XGSPON service will be removed free of charge, as EE continues to evaluate the technology ahead of a potential wider rollout.\n\nTo register interest in the trial, EE customers can **CLICK HERE** to sign up for the three-month trial.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards:The GB News Editorial Charter **",
