50/6 :( 'Murca!
1000/1000. Usually testing will show between 800-960 in both directions.
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.
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.
~90/30 (paying for 100/40).
That's considered pretty good for our shit Aussie FTTN (VDSL) network.
Fibre upgrades are happening.

1000Mbps each direction. No caps. There's options for faster but it's almost unheard of that I can saturate the link as it is (and nearly all of my hope network doesn't go faster)
I got pretty lucky, there's actually 3 carriers in the area that I can choose from which is probably partly why the options are good. Although I'm paying I think $80/month. I should switch carriers again or try to cancel my current one to try to get a deal, I guess.
1 Tbps ???? Or did you mean to say 1 Gbps / 1000 Mbps ?
Oof. I had fixed a typo but fixed it wrong. Sorry, I'ma dope.
Fixed the fix, thanks.
950 down, 500 up for $109NZD/month
1gb symmetrical $70 a month...
500 Mb symmetrical. It's more than enough even while running a home server.
1000 down and 100 up for ca 40 euro a month
Damn, I pay something like Β£65 for that speed in the UK.
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.
75, 75, for $50 Canadian... It's what I'd consider barely satisfactory.
1000 down and up. Realistically itβs usually around 970 but still.
120/100 and seems to be max all the time.
380/260, for βgigabit fiberβ
My day job is building ISP networks. It's been about 20 years since I had a home connection that I didn't configure up both ends of myself.
I've got a 1G / 500M tail into home where I am right now, not that that is particularly impressive. One of the jobs I've been putting off at work is standardising our usage of the 10G GPON platform available here in NZ, when I do that I'll get one of the >1G tails to use at home.
Usually the answer is how ever much I can be bothered building, but my usage is pretty low.
You can come around to my-place and upgrade me.
In saying that we were the first install of fibre in our village. Got a call the wee before it was meant to be installed something like βwe have just turned on the fiver network, you are just around the corner from us you want us to install today?β
How's the rollout of the 10G stuff going? Seems like it's been coming "soon" for the last couple of years. Not that I could actually make use of 10G down.

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)
40/40
1000/35
Comcast
Iβm surprised your upload is so low. They recently did some massive speed boosts in many places, 100 for most users and 200 for gigabit or higher.
The better upload requires using their modem/router, or one of the specific users owned ones that are approved by them to work with the mid-split tech. While my old modem could technically do it, it wasn't "approved" for the speed. I was limited on upload to 35 but could usually hit 45 from over provisioning. I had to buy a new modem but now I get 1400/200. They just flipped the switch on being able to use consumer owned hardware at all with the mid-splits this fall.

10 Gbps symmetrical for 40 bucks a month TV included. It's absolutely mind boggling for me how expensive internet is in North America.
Jesus, 10Gbps!? I'm paying $90 for "gigaspeed" AT&T fiber. But, I'm luckier than most, I have AT&T fiber and Metronet as fiber providers, as well as Spectrum and T-Mobile (but yuck to using 5G as my primary source of internet).

The country is fucking huge to be fair, but it's also the capitalism capital of the world.
The country can be huge but most people live in urban areas now, it's not like they've gotta waste time and money running fiber all over north dakota. We're talking cities with populations that rival some countries.
Would have great internet too if the telecommunication companies didn't just pocket the money for installing fiber infrastructure. Twice.

950/450 fiber, can normally pull over 900 down from a good NZ server
300mbps down 60 mbps up.
Although aoparently fibre-to-the-premises is available... Just havent got rounf to checking if its symmetrical or worth.
3-5MB/s download on my computer, 1-3MB/s on my phone.
75/15
Everyone around me is getting fiber, but I'm on a private/unadopted road, so not for me π
Still better than what I have.
1Gbps symmetrical, business class, because I run my business from my home.
1000 up and down. Fiber is great. Actually having competition instead of a Comcast monopoly in my area is amazing.

14 download and 8 upload.
