I have a download speed of 3.5 mbps.

I never did an actual benchmark but that's what my system monitor looks like whenever I download something.

[–] Pringles@lemm.ee 2 points 8 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.

[–] loutr@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago

5G in Paris: 380 down, 90 up. Unlimited calls, SMS and data, 10€/mo.

[–] Resol@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

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.

[–] Zulegy@feddit.nl 2 points 8 months ago

1000Mbit up/down, €37,50 ($40.82)

[–] Salix@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

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

[–] abalyes@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

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.

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 2 points 8 months ago

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

[–] crusa187@lemmy.ml 2 points 8 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

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

[–] assassinatedbyCIA@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago
[–] SpeedLimit55@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Pay for fiber 300, actual is about 365 each way

[–] scytale@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

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

[–] centof@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

14 download and 8 upload.

[–] hperrin@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

1Gbps symmetrical, business class, because I run my business from my home.

[–] JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

3-5MB/s download on my computer, 1-3MB/s on my phone.

[–] ianovic69@feddit.uk 2 points 8 months ago

513/74 this evening. My fttp package is 150d but I get the 500 at the 1Gig price.

The install and billing issues after were so bad that i ended up with almost two years of credit. Only started paying in December and they haven't said or changed anything.

I'm going to see how long it lasts.

[–] TheWeirdestCunt@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 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)

[–] boeman@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

1gb symmetrical $70 a month...

[–] TimLovesTech@badatbeing.social 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

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.

[–] Schlemmy@lemmy.ml 2 points 8 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.

[–] MrTHXcertified@lemdro.id 2 points 8 months ago

50/6 :( 'Murca!

[–] mryessir@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 8 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....

150/150 fiber.

[–] Thorny_Insight@lemm.ee 2 points 8 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

400 for approx 40 usd

[–] june@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

800/250

My promo deal is about to end but I’ve been paying $50/month for it for 2 years now.

[–] plz1@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

1000mbps / $100 / month

[–] rockyTron@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

980/980 fiber, $65/mo in Colorado

[–] derf82@lemmy.world 2 points 8 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.

[–] SomeGuy69@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

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

[–] nutsack@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

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