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.

75/70 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.

50/6 :( 'Murca!

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

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

[โ€“] pixelscript@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

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).

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

[โ€“] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

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

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

[โ€“] plz1@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

1000mbps / $100 / month

Advertised 1000/1000 90usd/month. On wifi, I get around 550/120 but it varies.

181/144 Mbps. Over WiFi.

[โ€“] MrMcGasion@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

$80/month for 300Mbps down/10 Mbps up, Southeastern US. Consistently get higher download speeds than advertised, currently around 350Mbps. Upload speed is never more than 10Mbps.

[โ€“] untilyouarrived@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

500 down / 100 up. ยฃ50. UK.

I believe I pay USD $70/mo for 100 Mbps down / 20 Mbps up. American midwest.

Tends to actually measure around 10%-20% higher than advertised. Just ran some speed tests and got 120/40. Not complaining.

$5/mo or $10/mo of that I think is for renting the modem which I stupidly have not bought yet.

[โ€“] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

75, 75, for $50 Canadian... It's what I'd consider barely satisfactory.

[โ€“] lemmy@endlesstalk.org 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

1000 down and 100 up for ca 40 euro a month

[โ€“] morrowind@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Theoretical or actual?

[โ€“] sramder@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

681 down 43.9 up. Not as fast as I pay for by a few hundred Mbps, but it gets the job done ;-)๏ฟผ
