High-speed internet penetration is growing

These data are given in a statistical report prepared by the National Regulatory Agency for Electronic Communications and Information Technology (ANRCETI).

Of the total number of connections, 868.3 thousand were made via FTTx technology (fiber optic communication), which is 10.8% more than in the same period of the previous year.

The penetration rate of fixed internet services via FTTx technology per 100 households in the first quarter of 2025 reached 76.1 connections, 8 percentage points higher than in the same period of the previous year. This trend confirms the growing interest of consumers – both individuals and businesses – in reliable and high-speed connectivity solutions.

An analysis of connections by access speed in the first quarter of 2025 shows a clear trend towards high-speed connections compared to the same period last year. The segment of connections with speeds between 100 Mbps and 500 Mbps holds the largest share at 35.9%, followed by connections with speeds between 500 Mbps and 1 Gbps at 29.8%. The number of connections with speeds below 30 Mbps, on the contrary, decreased significantly – by 31.4%, amounting to only 7.4% of the total number of connections.

The published data also show that 85.5% of fixed Internet contracts include other services (VoIP, IPTV, etc.), which indicates consumers’ preference for integrated packages. The most popular package type is fixed Internet + IPTV, which is chosen by 46.7% of subscribers, while 14.5% of subscribers prefer separate Internet services.
