New research suggests that Croydon has more homes struggling with broadband speeds than other parts of London.

Around 2.3% of homes there can’t get speeds needed for smooth online gaming, compared with 1.2% in Hammersmith and Fulham.

The figure is 0.7% in Wandsworth, 0.6% in Sutton and 0.4% in Merton.

The study by Playiro used Ofcom data to compare broadband coverage across the UK.
