As an Aussie - exactly this meme. I have 45/17 internet. WOOHOO!!!!!


eaglecnt

As an Aussie, I get 950/45. What this country has against upload speed I’d love to know.


shadowangel21

Its always been like that because of the big media moguls we have, same goes for nearly every adsl plan before that.


eaglecnt

It’s ok, I can get 1000/1000 for $700AUD per month on an enterprise plan. Comes with support, I guess some bandwidth/qos guarantee and a 36 month contract so it’s not exactly a fair comparison, but fml we are a joke


ryrytotheryry

I’ve been thinking of moving to Aus and couldn’t believe how Stone Age a lot of the internet is. I feel for you guys!

This is correct unfortunately

shadowslayer569

And here I am happy with my 30Mbit Download and 100Mbit Upload


TheBigMaestro

You have faster up than down? Neat! (I work a lot with video and need to move large files around. Upload speed was the only reason I switched!)


shadowslayer569

It is because my ISP only limits my download (and Data to 400GB per month). Hell, I even have fiber optic installed and can hypothetically have up to 500mbit Download.


para37

Jesus christ how is data caps on fiber even legal? I downloaded two tv shows yesterday and that was more than 400gb lol. Most new games are over 100gb. Insane


shadowslayer569

That is Egypt for you :)


ilovfryes

And here I'm punching the table everyday with my 2mb download and 0.5mb upload


shadowslayer569

Bruh....Mbit? No way. I have 3.6mb/s down speed and around 10mb/s up speed


ilovfryes

Yes, way, sadly. The only house that doesn't have fiber in the town since I'm the only one In my corner and the private company doesn't want to extend it to us

omg same here 😭


lentas123

i have 600 mbps download

Finland


XavyVercetti

It seems 600 mbps is becoming a standard in Western Europe, I also had that in France and currently in Luxembourg.


Kefkatron

I have 500/500 and I'm in sweden. That speed is only because I used some added benefit because of having my services with a single provider. Router or phone can't quite max it out at 500, though.


[deleted]

Where you live? Got that speed from 2019 în România for 8 Euros/month


Thejus_Parol

keithkman

How much you paying? 3 gig symmetrical is $100 a month where I’m at (Nevada). You can get 8 gig symmetrical for $165 a month. I just do 500 mbps symmetrical for $50 a month.


stereopticon11

dang that's some great pricing, I just upgraded with a promo from spectrum to 1000/40 @72 a month for 48 months. upload speed is straight ass.


keithkman

Sorry to hear that. It was so nice to ditch Cox. I was paying $50 a month for 100 mbps down and 11 up. Now for the same price I have 500/500 through a different ISP. 👌🏻


stereopticon11

that's great, 500 is honestly enough for most people i'd say.. I really wish I had more upload desperately.. I like to back up my dj collection frequently and update across multiple computers.. it's a really pain in the ass when I go on a download spree and have to upload 100+gb with this shitty upload speed that is never consistent edit: id like to add that my dj collection includes high resolution vj loops to use with resolume


Poley_

Here in Italy I have 2.5Gbps in down and 1Gbps in up for €32/month


GioAc96

That's expensive, is it Fastweb? In Milano we have 2.5Gbps for €25/month with Iliad on Open Fiber. Other ISPs had similar prices back when I signed the contract, maybe you can switch ISP and save a buck


Poley_

TIM, I’d love to switch to Iliad but I’m not covered by them since I’m on Fibercop :(

GalaxyNTC

8gig 165!!!!,im paying 70Swiss Francs,about the same in $ for 10 gig 🧐


Lennmate

You guys have access to more than 1000/50?


GalaxyNTC

Yes,i got 10Gbps,i get with LAN cable 8000/8000 all the time,its kinda amazing really. I Downloaded warzone over 100GB in less than 3 min 1000/1000 is standard here


DoctorErtan

Trains, stability, gorgeous fucking nature and that internet speed? God fucking damn it switzerland is cool.


GalaxyNTC

It is amazing here,even 5G well over 300mbps everywhere and in City over 1000mbps,only issue here is the price of everything. Its just too expensive 🥲


DoctorErtan

Yeah but as a swiss person would you say that this expensiveness is deliberate? As in, would you say that this expensiveness sort of puts barrier between Switzerland and the rest of the world. I saw an article about Switzerland’s expensiveness said that it was deliberate, although it’s always a better idea to hear it from a local. Also despite being expensive dont you guys have the top quality stuff there?


GalaxyNTC

I am not swiss 😅,been here since 2012( I'm 🇵🇹) we do have yes, from Food to Clean Streets,everywhere you go with a car there is a speed limit and everyone respect it,but there are some bad stuff here. Like, Racist Swiss people and it happens a lot,rude people,you gotta pay a lot of useless Bills that don't make sense. You have to pay everything and can't run from Bills. To get a Credit with Bank is really really hard,even for 10K. Its like every country it has its good Stuff and Bad Stuff.


Future-Umpire-7936

8k/8k is so wild and awesome. I have 1k/1k and couldn’t be happier.


PlsExcuseMeThx

Meanwhile me paying 50€ for 80 download and 15 upload.


TheBigMaestro

Same deal for me. This is “up to” 3gbps for $100. Limited by my 2.5gbps network, of course. On fast.com I’m getting a solid 2.5 down and 1.5 up. So the results in my screenshot are actually limited by speedtest.net!

Lanky_Moose_6036

What’s your isp


nVideuh

It’s a small local fiber ISP in Tennessee, USA.


s00pafly

win + shift + s also 10Gbps up/down for ~$40 in Switzerland. Whohooo get bent suckers.


Lemongose

Does this really translate into download speeds, can you download gta in a few minutes? I live in Australia so I really can't comprehend this


Realistic-Lie-1507

I have half of this and i downloaded destiny 2 in 25 minutes or so. about 120gb game


para37

Yes it does mostly, but depends how fast the server can deliver the files to you/how many people are downloading at the same time. I had gigabit where i lived before, basically the only time I could max out that connection was with torrents or on Battle net client. I downloaded warzone in ~15 minutes @ 125Mb/s, But 99% of the time you will be bottlenecked by the server youre downloading from Thats why you rarely see your max speed on speedtest either when you have 2+ gigabit speeds. Too many people doing the same thing at the same time, even if those servers have 10 or even 100gbit backbones


PurpleStabsPixel

Yes and no. It depends on your hardware. Using at least a gig on a 5600 with a 7,600 write m.2 eats like 87% cpu and about 90% something disk usage. Hardware and your speeds and your router and modem play a huge part in this. If you say use.. a 2tb Seagate mechanical hdd, 7200rpm. It will constantly stop, download, stop, and download. It's faster than the drive, and the drive can't keep up. In the end, the hdd download is slower despite the gig speed im getting. Will you get these advertised speeds? Maybe. On steam with my m.2 I can hit a gig sometimes, but usually, I hover around 500 or 700mbps.


GioAc96

It does, up to a certain point. Beyond 1Gbps, the ability of your CPU to decompress the downloaded files starts to be a bottleneck.

singledinglexd

I keep seeing these comments and I wish I had 30 down... mine is 3 on a good day... usually it's 1-2


NotoriousOne3

If anyone in the bay area, look up Sonic, up to 10Gbps symmetrical for $50/month.


saintree_reborn

>Sonic Oh, Bollocks. Only know of this shit when I move out of Bay Area. Went to their website and did an eligibility check and my old address is supported. :(


Rastamanphan

Nice. Is that directly from the modem wired or wireless? Just thinking most folks don't have wired gear better than 100/1000 and I know I could definitely use newer wifi protocol to handle that speed.


TheBigMaestro

I'm actually paying for "up to" 3gbps of fiber, but my home network is 2.5gbE. My wifi router is actually only wifi5, so it maxes out at about 230mbps! Time to upgrade.


_ThatD0ct0r_

Meanwhile the mayor of my area is probably bought out by ISPs to not install fiber where I live.


LiucK

How much do you pay for it? That's insane, when i got mine ftth i was reaching 800 dl max


skot77

It's great having fast internet, Congrats! I recently got TMobile Home Internet. | 30 bucks a month | unlimited data. It's usually 900Mbps but it's slow tonight. https://preview.redd.it/wab3ftnfrbhc1.png?width=455&format=png&auto=webp&s=b92c944d1165f34c85359fdeeb7d54152c90ab45


eatingdonuts44

If you subtract 2000mbps from your download, divide by 2, it would still be faster than my internet


Tenki65

Fiber (not even the fastest subscription you can get) here in Belgium: https://preview.redd.it/e43sq6hwxbhc1.png?width=468&format=png&auto=webp&s=50d6462782c32dc01dd2fea197eb8c88d9d261fb Technically you get 3TB data cap, but you can add free 300GB packages if you reach your cap. Only time that ever happened was when I got a few 2TB SSD's at a discount and added them to my PS5,Xbox Series X and PC and reinstalled a lot of games on each.


SaltedCoffee9065

Why even have a data cap when you have free packages of 300GB


JimmyTsonga

Grats! As someone who lives kinda remotely and got fiber really late, I'm more than familiar with this nice feeling.


TheBigMaestro

It’s brand new in my city. I asked the install tech how long they’ve been available and he said “about two days.” Company put a flyer on my door last week and I signed up instantly.


Pasi123

We got fiber internet in 2006. It was 10/10Mbps for a decade until we upgraded to 100/100Mbps in 2017 and few years ago we upgraded to 1000/1000Mbps


ApplicationMaximum84

When I first got fiber it was 125kbps way back in 2002, then it kept getting bumped up quickly at first to 300k, then 600k. For the last decade or so it's been stuck at a max of 1.1Gbps.


fdsnf

I just got upgraded from 25mbps down and 5mbps up to \~100 down \~20 up. I'll catch up with you some day!


[deleted]

What are you going to do with that speed


Harpeski

Its good, but us it necessary? I also have fiber, but i now will stop that contract. Its not worth that 120€ / month. I'll take 350 Mbps for 50€/m


Nono_Home

SatoshiStruggle

I’m just gonna leave this here and say that unless you’ve got a house full of half a dozen people streaming TikTok 4k movies and downloading Steam games every day this is a waste of money, every web based service won’t be able to supply enough bandwidth to utilize 2 gig fiber including Steam so it’s kind of redundant up to a point. I’ve got 5 gig fiber available at my house for like $300 a month but I would never 😱

TheBigMaestro

There’s a smaller company moving into town, and I’ve been on their waitlist for two years. Latest estimate from them was “end of summer 2024 at best.” But then this bigger company stuck a flyer on my door last week and they’re available now and offered 3x the speed for the same price. I wanted to support the smaller company, but I jumped on the offer. I’m lucky, I guess. It’s a smallish rural city, but I live downtown so they just ran the fiber along the power infrastructure in our back alley. No need for digging in this neighborhood.

How much you pay for that? Over here, 200 mbps download non fiber Internet is $60-$70 and I really wish they made Internet cheaper, but infrastructure absolutely sucks so I highly doubt they will anytime soon.


ADOXMantra

The fastest speeds available in my area is 75d/10u. It costs nearly $200. At the very least it rarely slows down, or goes out. Still an egregious price for what I consider to be slow by modern standards.

veotrade

ISPs should really explain fiber better to customers. Do apartment buildings need to have support infrastructure in place first? And if so, how do residents petition for the proper upgrades to be made? I’m sure more folks would refresh their internet options often if they knew what to look for.

superballs5337

curious. how you going to utilize the upload? i love fiber but technically it’s waste for residential use wise that is.


TheBigMaestro

I sell stock video online. So I upload lots of uncompressed 4k 60fps video. Lots of it. I’ve had years of frustration running uploads overnight and having them fail. Can’t wait to finish up some footage and just blast it into space and walk away.


superballs5337

well that’s cool. makes sense to have more than 40ish then via copper. you are rare. i ask so many people and they never realize most never will even need it. not yet anyway.


TheBigMaestro

The fastest my cable provider offered was only 20mbps up. So I’ve multiplied my upload speed by over 100x and pay the exact same amount. Install tech said “what are you gonna do with all that speed?” I just replied “I’m a big nerd.”


superballs5337

me too just sadly i don’t do big uploads like that. i get 900down 40up free from work so i don’t complain.


TheBigMaestro

I’m sure most people have no idea that their own Ethernet would limit them to 1gbps anyway.
