About Imagine’s network
Imagine uses advanced 4G and 5G wireless technologies to connect your home to the nearest fibre point available on their network.
They restrict the number of customers they service in a particular area, to ensure you get the speeds you need to stream care-free whenever you like.
Imagine currently reaches over one million homes and businesses across all 26 counties in rural Ireland.
What speed can you get?
The speed you’ll get depends on your location. You’ll find out your maximum download and upload speeds when an engineer comes to your house to install the service.
You should expect to achieve around 80% of those maximum speeds when using your Imagine broadband.
What is the maximum download speed?
Imagine suggests that 150Mbps is the maximum download speed for a single connection, even though the technology has the capability to deliver much higher speeds than this.
However, the minimum contracted download speed is just 2Mbps and the minimum upload speed is 1Mbps.
Is Imagine right for you?
It depends on several things. If you’re living in a rural area, Imagine’s broadband coverage may reach your home and offer a much faster service tan you could get elsewhere.
They only offer one broadband package which includes a home phone and selected free calls and minutes. If you don’t want a landline, a broadband-only plan may be cheaper.
It’s best to compare their plan against plans from other providers in our comparisons. Pick the plan with the features you need for the lowest price.
Don’t forget to check for hidden charges like installation costs and early exit fees.

Does Imagine have a fair usage policy?
