I'm paying 50eur for 250 in Germany but I'm only getting 10-15 because of the shitty cabling in our house. Yay!

500/500 for around 10 eur per month
I guess Poland? I know from my colleagues that internet infrastructure jumped from old slow stuff to fiber there and it's fairly cheap.

250/40 no caps, 70β¬/month, germany on the edge of a city. The city has fiber but weβre not there yet. Stuff is slow in germany since telekom owns most of the infrastructure and is a private company that really needs to be disowned rn!
Theoretically? 100. It only works in specific, uncrowded areas, and then only sometimes.
Practically, as in 80% of scenarios? Anywhere from 10 to as low as 0.03. It's bad enough that in some places I can't even load a basic website, as I can't even crack 1mbps. I also often get the "connected, no Internet" crap.
Right now? 10d/1u. There was a post recently about my country coming last in internet speeds in Europe
~1000/1000 (usually more like 1300m on speed tests when wired)
$55/month here in the Northeast USA

5 mbps for 18β¬/month... Fuck this I'm switching back to pidgeons.
300/300 here. $40
On a good day, about 30 down / 5 up. I can't Wait to move somewhere where I can get good internet
In a relatively small US city, 600/600 mbps fiber and I actually get it 24/7. I could get 1200, 2400 or even 5000 but I donβt see any point. Heck I can get 700/35 on my iPhone (overnight).
1Gbit fibre, they offer up to 3Gbit but I really donβt see the need right now and donβt have the hardware to take advantage of it right now.
Β£21/mo for a 100Mb/s VDSL connection split at 80/20: speeds as advertised, ~10ms latency. I'm living in the centre of a large market town in the North of England.
Two doors down, my neighbour is paying Β£25/mo for symmetric gigabit FTTP with negligible latency, but the fibre network doesn't extend to my property. Fuckers.
Oh, I also have a backup/travel LTE service which provides about a 1150Mb/s down and 300Mb/s up with 20ms latency which costs me Β£18/mo.
300 mbps, symmetrical, ~30 usd/mo.
100/100 for 22,000 KRW/month (about $16.50 USD).
Other options with my provider:
- 500/500 for 35,750 KRW ($26.85)
- 1000/1000 for 41,250 KRW ($31)
- 2500/2500 for 44,000 KRW ($33)
- 5000/5000 for 55,000 KRW ($41.31)
- 10000/10000 for 82,500 KRW ($62)
And that 100/100 is effective. Shit downloads fast
One of many, many reasons I'm not fond of going back to the US. Maybe Europe next, we'll see. For now, Korea is pretty sweet
1.2 Gbps at fast.com. Very lucky to live in a location that offers fiber.
25/10 for 65AUD/m (43USD/m). Australia, NBN (monopoly across entire country, technically government owned but run like a private corp because of politics). It's the lowest speed now available, but it's already overpriced. $780/year is far more than all of my wifi capable equipment is worth together, including laptops.
1gb symmetrical $70 a month...
1000 down and up. Realistically itβs usually around 970 but still.
Pay for fiber 300, actual is about 365 each way
500/500 but average 530+ both ways for $50/month. Up to 5 gigabit is available in my area.
EDIT - In the US the FCC just upped what is considered "broadband" to 100/20 , which still seems sad for upload, but at least moving in the right direction. It was an awful 25/3 before.
980/980 fiber, $65/mo in Colorado
500 down maybe 50 up I forgot the up speed
Pay for 500/500 but am eligible to get as high as 1500/1500. Don't really see the need. Ping to Boston is almost always 7-14ms. Really lucky to be able to get fibre to the home after so many years of piss poor unreliable cable that would go down weekly
1000mbps / $100 / month
it's supposed to be 100mb/s but in reality it's about 0.5mb/s, I've seen it drop as low as 5kb/s (my landlord is a cheapscate and won't replace the busted wifi extender in my uni dorm block)
100/120
On average around 40/5 depending of the day. I've got an option for fibre aswell but 4G is much cheaper

depends on the time of day and the status of a particular cable that runs under the ocean. anywhere between 4kbps and 20mbps.
100
.... mbps could mean both but one should differ between Mbps and MBps.
100 Mbit (Mbps) enables a max download speed of: 12.5 MBps....

Starlink. Between 20 down, to 380 down, depending on where I am. Have never gone higher.
1Gbps symmetrical, business class, because I run my business from my home.
390 down/340 up. I pay for 300/300, and it always tests higher, and at a price less than I paid for 100/10 service from the cable company. And it has about 1/3rd the latency as cable. Love having fiber. Worth noting that cable went to 300/20 as soon as fiber came to the neighborhood for the same price they charged before. Competition rules.
My last speed test gave me 64/67 Mbps
14 download and 8 upload.
