Telekom Deutschland (TD), the domestic operating unit of Deutsche Telekom (DT), says it increased fixed broadband speeds for an additional 300,000 households in July 2023. The firm revealed that 36 million homes can now access maximum data rates of up to 100Mbps and the number of 250Mbps-enabled lines has reached over 29 million nationwide.
