Around 475 homes in Wembley Park are now equipped to get download speeds of up to 1GBs, making it the fastest domestically connected area in the UK.

There are already 500 homes receiving 100mb upload and download speeds in the area, reaching as far as Park Royal.

According to a uSwitch survey in March, the fastest street for broadband was clocked in at around 72 Mbps in Staffordhsire, much slower than the new speeds in Wembley.

Tech companies and start-ups are also moving to the area to take advantage of the high speeds and cheaper rents.

Ben Fillmore, managing director of E-House - a tech-driven property company - said: “Here we can have a 100mb dedicated line, with the same upload and download speed, it’s enabled us to change our IT infrastructure to maximise new technology.

“We moved to Wembley Park quite recently and our staff love the community feel and facilities available here so it’s been a very positive move for us.”

Wembley Park resident Carrie Webster said: “Moving into a flat with broadband already wired in was great. This kind of speed is brilliant as well. I can stream films and surf the net at the same time and never worry about the connection dropping out.”

The speedy connections also mean that it is possible for major events at Wembley Arena to be live-streamed to millions of people.

The venue has two 10Gbs connections and last year more than 14-15m viewers streamed the Riot Games League of Legends event at the Arena.

It also has a unique fibre optic ring, which was used for the X-Factor finals and allows high speed connections throughout the 12,500 capacity building.

The nearest speedy rivals to Wembley Park are a street in Staffordshire, a road in Yardley, Birmingham, and one in Liverpool.

They all have download speeds averaging over 70Mbs, still considerably lower than the 100Mbs at Wembley Park.
