The number of homes and small businesses accessing broadband over BT's network has passed the 15 million mark, the telecoms giant announced.
More than five million of the connections are via BT Retail and the rest are through other companies who have access to the BT network.
BT had around 200,000 broadband connections in August 2002, so the company has added another 14.8 million connections in the past eight years, equivalent to more than 5,000 new broadband connections a day.
Olivia Garfield, BT strategy director, said: "Broadband Britain has been a success story with widespread availability, low prices and high take up."
