About 5 to 10mbps down. If a post has like 20 embedded images, I have to wait a whole 3 minutes for all of them to load.

Don't even get me started on upload speeds. Unless it's uploaded to Instagram, it always takes FOREVER.

These are the consequences of living in Morocco. Shitty internet. And we still have yet to get 5G.

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.

100(usually between 700 and 930) down. 75 up

$50 USD in a very expensive city.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

150/20 over LTE. It's good enough, although we used to have 1000/150 when we still lived in an apartment. Upgrade of living came with a downgrade in internet speed.

75/10 over "fixed wireless", fastest available to me. $85 AUD per month. If I lived 5 minutes closer to town I'd have fiber. The NBN sucks.

93mbps, Germany. I could go up to 250mbps but it probably wouldn't work with the copper wires and require a new Fritzbox router.

My isp contract is 300mbps but I only get 172 on average.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

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.

1Gbps down, 0.7Gbps up.

Well that's a lie actually as some workers have cut the line thursday and it's down to 100Mbps down and a ridiculous 1.5Mbps up over a 4G link :-/

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

75/70 at 23 euros a month. It's cheap and enough for our family to simultaneously stream HD content. Gigabit internet is available but I'm not really sure it's necessary. My son has 14 ping while gaming. That's satisfactory.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

1200/1200, Comcast can suck on these fibers. Still paying ~10x what non Americans do, but at least it isn’t for literal garbage tier service-monopoly

depends on the time of day and the status of a particular cable that runs under the ocean. anywhere between 4kbps and 20mbps.

980/980 fiber, $65/mo in Colorado

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

500 down maybe 50 up I forgot the up speed

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

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)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

500 down and 40 up through Spectrum (east coast of the US). I'm always quite surprised with how well WiFi 6 works, I can pull down the full 500 from my Steam Deck and PC - ironically the network transfer is implemented badly as I'll get about 100 down over the local network so it's faster to download over the Internet.

$60/month so, not bad!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Pay for fiber 300, actual is about 365 each way

940/940 unlimited for ~$90/month in Western Canada

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

150/150 fiber.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

900Mb down, 450Mb up. Unlimited data.

$55 USD per month here in New Zealand

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (4 children)

.... mbps could mean both but one should differ between Mbps and MBps.

100 Mbit (Mbps) enables a max download speed of: 12.5 MBps....

100Mbps symmetrical FTTH for $11/month. I get 120Mbps in real world scenarios(P2P, Good DDL servers) maybe due to Dual Stack Lite ISP?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

800 Mb/s download & 10-20 Mb/s upload for $70/mo with a 1 TB data limit here.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Starlink. Between 20 down, to 380 down, depending on where I am. Have never gone higher.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (2 children)

On average around 40/5 depending of the day. I've got an option for fibre aswell but 4G is much cheaper
