I'd be careful with this package, especially if you use custom equipment which you kind of have to in order to take advantage of it.
The included 'Smart Hub' has a 2.5gb WAN port but the LAN ports are all just regular ol' single gig ports which means your wired clients won't get anything higher than around 940mbps in real world. The problem when using custom equipment is that EE are still using PPPOE for authentication which was introduced in the 90s when dial up was still prevalent. The overhead and limitations of PPPOE are significant at anything over a gig. Even with high end business level equipment, you will struggle to maintain or even reach that full 1.6gb especially once you start adding security such as IPS/IDS.
I upgraded to the 1.6gbps plan and it's been nothing but pain. Customer service have no idea how to support it (I was told at one point it didn't exist and that I was talking about WiFi 6 as if I was an idiot). It's also insanely expensive for what you get and the speeds are NOT symmetrical.
I've had such a bad experience that I'm paying the several hundred pound penalty to leave my service early and go with an alternative provider that uses DHCP and will provide a 2.3gbps symmetrical service for £25 a month less.
