181/144 Mbps. Over WiFi.

[โ€“] fazzi@lemmy.ml 1 points 8 months ago

I'm hitting ~900mbps up and down. Only recently through the ISP "brsk" in the UK. Before I was on 70/20.

1000/50mpbs 25โ‚ฌ/month

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

[โ€“] danie10@lemmy.ml 1 points 8 months ago

341 Mbps down, 144 Mbps up at about $65pm in South Africa (advertised 300/150).

[โ€“] Xipherfox@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

1400/45 pretty consistently, no cap, I guess I sadly take top honor for what I pay though having read through most responses :/

$140 USD per month and I have no idea how any of you in North America are posting the speeds you are for so little money per month heh...

[โ€“] linearchaos@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

1000/800 NE US, no cap 90/mo

[โ€“] SomeOne@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 8 months ago

300 mbps down and 10 mbps up for 50$ a month no data cap. Sometimes I'll get as much as 380 down it just depends.

[โ€“] Schorsch@feddit.de 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

50/10, no data cap, ~30 โ‚ฌ/month, copper wire, suburban Germany.

60/60

$389 MXN (~$23.21 USD)

[โ€“] PowerCrazy@lemmy.ml 1 points 8 months ago

1Gbps symmetric. Actual speeds ~945Mbps Down and 913Mbps Up. $115/Mo Not the cheapest, but absolutely the fastest and most reliable so I'll take it.

[โ€“] Silentiea@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago

Advertised: 1000/1000 for $60/month

Actual: 200/115 on wifi

[โ€“] saltesc@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago

120/100 and seems to be max all the time.

[โ€“] sunbeam60@lemmy.one 0 points 8 months ago

950 mbit down / 120 mbit up. ยฃ70/month. Zen Internet, best ISP in the UK IMHO.

[โ€“] ripcord@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (2 children)

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.

autistic complaining about improper use of SI and SI adjacent units , going into a bit of self parody at the end

please fucking capitalise units properly , the most valid interpretation of "mbps" is millibit picosecond which is invalid anyway (should be femtobit second or fb s) and also not a unit of any kind of speed , not that you are asking about speed but likely bandwidth , but also in this specific case , ignoring that you use this stupid per construct , leaving it to interpretation which letter is meant to be capitalised and which lower case leaves megabits per second (Mb s^(-1)) and megabytes per second (MB s^(-1)) (of course milibits per second and milibytes per second are also units of bandwidth) , and also because bits and bytes are involved , are you using the mega- prefix per SI or , I would argue incorrectly , per JEDEC (as in 1 KB = 1024 B ) , I don't know because you have shown a complete disregard for units and all they represent , for everyone who takes the time to understand , learn and properly use prefixes to convey a specific meaning , in a way that cannot be misinterpreted . You may not think this is important because "oh Lily you understood me anyway" and ? you have shown a complete disregard for all that anyone with a computer science degree should stand for , shown no intention to properly understand how the more and more computerised would around us works and for what ? so that your fingers can use a few less calories , putting of the heat death of the universe by an unimaginably irrelevant amount , which you will unknowingly spend anyway when you hear a bird sing across the road , is that really worth it to you ?
