How to Choose the right broadband
When you are going to pick a broadband, you have to look at the 3 most important things.
- Broadband type
- Broadband price
- Broadband speed
Type: It is important you dont pick a broadband from adsl (Telephone plug). Broadband through coax or fiber is much better and if you can't get that, go for mobile broadband.
Price: Compare the prices in our feed further down in the guide. Put in your address and see what prices you can get.
Speed: It is important that you pick a broadband which is fast enough for your needs, otherwise you're gonna regret it. We have made some small examples under here to help you.
- If you are one person who just surf on the internet and watches Netflix, you don't need more than 100 mbit.
- If you are more than one person and use more than one streaming service at a time, we recommend a minimum of 300 mbit.
- If you are more than one person and is gaming and using streaming services at one time, then we recommend 500 - 1000 mbit.
We recommend: If you are looking for a cheap and easy type of internet, but still have high demands regarding internet speed, you should look for 5G internet. Click here and compare the prices from the providers to find the right solution for you.

Check which provider you can get here. (Put in your address)
If you have never ordered a broadband before or have just moved to Denmark, then we have some important things you need to have or need to do, before you can order.
What do you need before you order
There are 5 things you need to have in order, before you can order a broadband subscription.
- CPR number
- MitID
- Danish address
- Danish payment card
- Danish phone number
You can find different guides on this process and they do not all recommend the same order you should do this in. Some say you need a Danish address to get a CPR number and some say you need CPR to register an address.
The right advice is to go to the local (Borgerservice) and ask about the process. It is also a good idea for the future to learn danish, through an "danskuddannelse". Being able to speak and read danish will make the process much easier.
FAQ
If you need internet fast and do not have time for waiting on a broadband provider to deliver the product, then we will recommend buying a mobile broadband with an included router. You can get it for a good price, and if you pick one without binding then you can send it back when your Broadband is up and running.
In Denmark you can normally get broadband pretty fast, but it depends on your order. If your order is broadband with coax 300 mbits and less, then the providers can send it right away and you can set it up easily. But if you need more than 300 mbits, then you in some situations need a technician to change your plug, but you can have 300 mbit until they have time. You can get fiber right away if it is set up inside the house, but it will take a long time if it not.
If you need a Danish mobile provider, then we recommend our good friends from Mobilabo.dk who can give you a good overview on the Danish mobile subscription market.
If you want to know how fast your broadband is, then you can use our speedtest. There we will show your download and upload speed so you can check if you get what you pay for.
