200Mb/s? What are you using, a 4G+ modem?
Average USA internet speed: 99.3 Mb/s
Average UK internet speed: 50.4 Mb/s
Average EU internet speed: 103.3 Mb/s
Average Japan internet speed: 42.8 Mb/s
Average South Korea internet speed: 110.6 Mb/s
Average Canada internet speed: 99.8 Mb/s
200 Mb/s is far above the average in any country on the planet.
In those countries and the EU in general, sure, but not every country
Your general point still stands, mind you, I was just curious about it and figured others might like the info too 😉
Quite shocked that Sweden doesn't rank any higher though. They have or used to have the second most total fiberoptic bandwith in the world after the US which has roughly 30 times the population spread out on 22 times the area..
I guess I should've considered that places that are 100% city would have better averages than 200
Romania, Denmark and Thailand are far from 100% city though 😄 I'm not sure about the ratios in the other two, but here in Denmark, there's a LOT more farmland, forest and smaller towns by area than cities..
