Indeed, it’s not so much as who offers the highest speed, it’s more a case of 'are they in your area'? I could get Community Fibre, which is offering a 5Gb/s symmetric connection for £49 per month, rising to £55 in April 2028. One caveat though, it’s a CGNAT connection but, I believe, you can get a (dynamic) public IP for an additional £4.

They supply a WiFi 7 router, but of course, you won’t get anywhere near that speed over WiFi. It does have two 10 Gbit/s ethernet ports, which is fine, as long as you have a device with 10Gig ports on it, which few people do. So this is 2.5 times faster, is symmetric, for slightly less money.

And this is all very good, but, unless they service your area, completely irrelevant.
