Comcast, considering I pay for 105D/15U, and get 65D/12U yes and no. I am getting WAY better than the 25 I used to, but still way less than advertised down speed.

 

If my mother didn't watch TV we would be paying less, but we are paying the same as RCN costs for just about the same package (cause I threatened to switch), so as far a price is concerned, I can't complain.

Hey guys!

I posted this in Off-Topic and not in the networking section because it isn't a problem I have or something like that...

I'm just curious about how would you rate (on a 1 to 10 scale) the internet speed that your ISP provides or general speeds of internet connections in your country?  :huh:

In the rating keep in mind not only the speed, but also how much do you pay to your ISP to have that speed (quality/performance ratio)!

 

Ok, lets see how this goes!  :D

UK 

Current connection = 1

New connection in few days maybe like = 5 (50mb/s)

For me, 50 mbps would be a 8.5/10...

Here in Italy optic fiber is not widely spread and ISPs are installing it only where there's a margin for profit...

So, you know what it looks like for me being stuck with a 4 mbps internet connection? D:

8/10, pretty content.

It's also not that expensive compared to other countries. No throttling (at least not for me) at all.

 

It's just a shame gigabit and just 200 Mbit+ connections are not common in internet packages here.

I'm from Sweden and I must say 10/10.

In the apartment I live in (and many other apartments) I can't get less than 50/10 mbps.
 

I pay around $30 a month.

Never needed to call customer support since I have had 0s downtime.
