    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.

    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.

    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.

    1Gbit fibre, they offer up to 3Gbit but I really don’t see the need right now and don’t have the hardware to take advantage of it right now.

    ~90/30 (paying for 100/40).

    That’s considered pretty good for our shit Aussie FTTN (VDSL) network.

    Fibre upgrades are happening.

    1000Gbps 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.

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

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

      I’ve never seen transfer rates given in MBps in the wild. It’s always Mbps.

      Serial network connections give no care to byte alignment, they operate either bit by bit or symbol by symbol (which are rarely byte aligned).

        I mean we are throwing accuracy out the window by using milli anyway so who the hell cares , at this point I’m afraid people are using “m” to mean JEDEC mega , ie per IEC mebi (“Mi”) , not even mentioning how stupid using the “p” infix looks when surrounded by SI or SI adjacent units

          we are throwing accuracy out the window by using milli anyway so who the hell cares

          It’s a factor of 8 we’re talking about. That’s not far off from a factor of 10. If a factor of 10 difference is important enough to get its own prefix in SI, I think a factor of 8 difference is plenty enough to care about having clarified notation. This isn’t like the mega/mebi thing where the drift is only on the order of 3%.

    Mine is supposed to be 100 / 100 and actually is. In Vietnam, symmetrical fiber-to-the-home is actually pretty common. I think I pay 5$ a month, or maybe a bit less.

      Kind of crazy that Vietnam can provide better Internet service to their citizens than the US. Not to disparage Vietnam in any way, but you’d think a country with the largest economy in human history would be able to keep up.

        The US could keep up, but then that means that telecoms would make less money, so obviously that is a non-starter.

        Well, usually competition creates more efficient prices. So I guess somehow your telecoms companies are using strategies to avoid competing somehow.

        On our end, we still have quite some parts of the economy that are planned. For example, I applied for my business license according to a particular 5-year plan, and there are only certain areas of the economy I’m allowed to participate in. I can’t just one day pick up and decide that I’m going to start a butter factory or something.

        The best Internet provider is literally the Army, but they weren’t granted a monopoly. The post office and three or four other major providers exist in every city. So there’s actually quite a healthy competition for customers, it seems this too was planned for. Things don’t always work out this well, but at least for Internet it worked out pretty great.

        As an aside, back when there wasn’t enough money to fund State organs, they would sometimes be granted profitable businesses to stay afloat. Some bits of this are left – you can stay at a beach hotel run by the police department in at least one city. It always seemed to me a smart way to get the country out of a bad situation. This is why the Army or the Post Office are licensed to to a bunch of profitable consumer services.

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

      Australia? I work from home with 25/10. No fibre option where I am. Considering starlink but God damn that cost.

        No, Finland. I’ve got fibre installed to my house but it would cost me 30€/month when 4G is 10€/month so for a frugal person like me it’s a nobrainer which I’m going to choose.
