What is Be Fibre Be2300? The Ultimate Package
Be Fibre Be2300 is the flagship package in Be Fibre's lineup, delivering an extraordinary 2.3 Gbps symmetric speeds. This is multi-gigabit performance—more than double the speed of even Virgin Media Gig1's download speeds, with upload speeds that are 44 times faster.
At £55/month, Be2300 represents the pinnacle of residential broadband in the UK. The symmetric nature means you get 2.3 Gbps for both uploads AND downloads—a capability that's virtually unmatched. While Virgin Media's Gig2 offers similar download speeds, its upload is limited to just 50 Mbps, making Be2300 over 45 times faster for uploads.
WiFi 6E: Next-Generation Wireless
Be2300 is the only Be Fibre package that includes a WiFi 6E router. WiFi 6E operates on the new 6 GHz band in addition to 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, providing:
- More bandwidth: The 6 GHz band offers significantly more channels, reducing congestion
- Lower latency: Ideal for gaming and real-time applications
- Faster speeds: WiFi 6E can deliver multi-gigabit wireless speeds to compatible devices
- Less interference: The 6 GHz band is currently less crowded than 5 GHz
- Future-proof: Ready for the next generation of devices
To fully utilize Be2300's speeds wirelessly, you'll want WiFi 6E-compatible devices. Newer smartphones (iPhone 15 Pro, Samsung Galaxy S23+, etc.), laptops, and tablets increasingly support WiFi 6E. For wired connections, any modern gigabit Ethernet adapter can achieve 1 Gbps, with 2.5 GbE adapters needed for full speed.

Do I need special equipment to get 2.3 Gbps?
To achieve full 2.3 Gbps, you'll need a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet (2.5GbE) network adapter for wired connections, as standard gigabit ports cap at 1 Gbps. For wireless, WiFi 6E compatible devices can achieve multi-gigabit speeds. The included WiFi 6E router handles the connection side. Most people will still see dramatic improvements even with gigabit equipment.
Is Be2300 worth it if I don't have WiFi 6E devices?
Be2300 can still be worthwhile for the symmetric upload speeds alone. Even with standard WiFi 6 devices capping around 1 Gbps wirelessly, the 2.3 Gbps upload means massive file transfers complete far faster than any other residential service. If you work with large files professionally, the upload speed alone justifies the package.
How does Be2300's upload compare to Virgin Media Gig2?
Be2300's upload is 46 times faster. Virgin Media Gig2 offers 2,200 Mbps download but only 50 Mbps upload. Be2300 delivers 2,300 Mbps in both directions. For anyone who uploads content, backs up to the cloud, or works from home, this difference is transformational.
Why does Be2300 include a WiFi 6E router?
WiFi 6E is required to deliver multi-gigabit speeds wirelessly. The new 6 GHz band provides wider channels and less interference than 5 GHz, enabling speeds over 2 Gbps to compatible devices. Be2300 is the only Be Fibre package that includes WiFi 6E because it's the only package where standard WiFi 6 would be a bottleneck.
Is Be2300 overkill for most people?
Honestly, yes. Most households will be perfectly served by Be500 or Be1000. Be2300 is designed for specific use cases: professional content creators, tech professionals working with large datasets, very large households, and those who want the absolute best available. If you're unsure, Be500 is probably sufficient.
Can I actually achieve 2.3 Gbps speeds?
With the right equipment (2.5GbE network adapters, WiFi 6E devices, quality Ethernet cables), yes. Real-world tests consistently show Be Fibre delivering close to advertised speeds. You're more likely to be limited by your device's network hardware than by Be Fibre's connection.
Is the £55/month price guaranteed?
Yes, Be Fibre guarantees no mid-contract price increases. Your £55/month stays £55/month for the entire 30-month contract. This is in contrast to Virgin Media Gig2 which costs more AND includes annual price rises.
