Kiwi here. Surely if a tiny, poor island nation like us can achieve 100Mb/s, the rest of the world can too?

Fast.
Careful. Gonna get a bunch of Ameriburgers mad about how their country can't into free market economy as well as a colonial nature reserve does.
I've had 100mbps+ for 8 years or so. Before that was 50mbps for a few years
Wireless is love :3
I get upwards of 200mbps in New England, only cause Comcast came to my house and took my personal router saying it was theirs and my lease was up.... Threatened to sue and they offered me their "fastest package" for no extra charge. I wonder how long it will last after net neutrality gets the boot from chairman pajeet

I live south of Manchester in New Hampshire where basically the only two ISPs are FairPoint (now Consolidated Communications) who only offers DSL and Cuckcast.
My town is too autistic to put in the fiber that FairPoint has been offering for years because apparently they want to keep it "rural" even though they're building a multi-million dollar development where some old apple orchards used to be.
The Mega is always capitalised my poor retarded friendo. It's the Bytes or bits you're thinking about.
Please kill me. Thanks.
I was talking about how OP says Mb/s and not Mbps. There is a difference you know.
If there is, colour me surprised. So, tell me, what is the difference between Mb/s and Mbps because every usage of them I can see on the internet points to them being interchangeable.
MB/s = megaBYTES/sec, a byte is 8 bits
Mbps = megaBITS/sec
MB/s = Mbps * 8

8/8 Mbps, costs an arm and leg
No it's not of any indication of internet speeds here. Infrastructure is extremely uneven here and I lost the fibre-laying lottery.
My general understanding is that Mb/s refers to Megabytes per second while Mbps refers to Megabits per seconds. This is a difference of factor 8.

>virgin media
What are you talking about? Who asked you about whether it's bits or bytes? Are you retarded? We're discussing whether changing the '/' to a 'p' changes things because it fucking doesn't.
In that case, I'm sorry to say that you're wrong. It's used with a capital B in both cases for bytes and not bits.
i can also get a gigibit line to my house if i wasnt a poorfag
Your understanding is wrong.
Mbps = Mb/s
MB/s = Mbps * 8 or Mb/s * 8
But even my browser says Mb/s when referring to megabytes and not megabits. So Mbps is something else here.
Then whoever made that part of your browser made a mistake. Seriously, you can look it up on google like I've been doing this whole time or you can just apply some basic logic. Either way will get you to the correct conclusion.
Well then thanks for the correct answer.
"ps" stands for "per second"
"/s" stands for "per second"
"ps" = "/s"
These are the same thing, different way of denoting "per second":
"Mbps" = "Mb/s"
"MB/s" = "MBps" (ain't nobody uses this shit)
"b" ≠ "B" (bit ≠ byte)
hence
"Mb" ≠ "MB" (megabit ≠ megabyte)
So it follows that
"Mbps" ≠ "MB/s"
Sorry for going slightly off topic.

Ok, and now try your internet speed to somehwere where you would actually connect to.
Here is a map for the physical internet, notice how you are the very last stop?
>upload 20
disgusting.
personally I'm still on 10/10 because of lazyness. 100/100+ would have been unsustainable as 500GB drives didn't exist yet.
I'm not sure you understand how internet speeds work, user. Hint: it's not actually about speed. Say I'm downloading something from half way around the world from me--I'll still be downloading at the full capacity of whatever internet plan I'm on, just at a higher ping.
You don't know shit. Try that speedtest with a server on the other side of the world.
I'm confused then, how does it work when I torrent shit from people all over the world and still hit 13MB/s? Genuinely confused.
I have no option other than Comcast, but it could be worse.

If you can't figure that out you don't belong on Sup Forums.
No, I'm pretty sure I know. The other guy may require your help though.
Since buying up more of Verizon's infrastructure, my ping has doubled for a server 10 miles away.

But there is light at the end of the tunnel! I get fibre in October
I hope so was meant to get FTTN 4 months ago but NBN keeps delaying
Why are you using speedtest.net instead of speedof.me?
speedtest . net /beta is shit for speedtesting though
you can't even select servers that far away from you which will not display accurate results.
I get 2ms ping here but if I connect to US or European servers from other sites I get like 200+ ms ping. That's really bad for streaming, A/V communication and gaming in general.
Same here, FTTN. I can't wait, gonna get iinets 100/50 just because "fuck you internet speeds".
Do you happen to know a good VDSL modem/router? Nothing too flash, just needs a gigabit Ethernet and basic wireless (fuck my roommates, they don't pay for internet so they'll get stuck with shitty speeds even after fibre)
>you can't even select servers that far away from you which will not display accurate results.
are you retarded?
Just fucking type in a server you want to connect to specifically if you don't want it to auto select a server.

There wasn't a searchbar before. :/
also shit ping senpai.
yeah, virginia to tokyo, no fucking shit it's shit ping, it's basically around the world almost directly.
Here is a local server for you
This is exactly what I was saying above. Local tests are useless if most of the contents you use are hosted far away. It is not the accurate representation of your internet speed, especially if you don't live in the US because most contents are hosted in US while very few countries only have mirror servers that only for few big websites.
> if most of the contents you use are hosted far away
That speed test server is within 5 miles of amazon's east coast servers.
I am pretty much right up against most major websites in the US that aren't hosted on the west coast, and most major things are hosted on both east and west coast.
Either NYC or Washington DC area. I am 3-10ms ping to both places.
It's the fastest internet they offer in my area. I really wish they had fiber optics out here, but I'm happy with what I have.
You're unfortunately pretty far from any big cities or tech areas, so it might be awhile before you get fiber.
Yep, it really sucks but like I said I'm pretty happy with 60Mb/s it's a hell of a lot better then DSL and I only pay $50 a month
>most contents are hosted in US
Is that true?
I am fairly sure most data centers are near Hamburg or Amsterdam because those cities have the biggest internet exchanges?
>Hamburg
Sorry, meant Frankfurt of course.
Lol, i mean, there are certainly servers there, but if you think google or amazon's MAIN data centers are in europe you're a bit retarded.
They certainly have a large presence for european consumers. But the majority of their servers are hosted in the US, and unless there is a local version in europe, whatever you're trying to access will have to go to the US.
MOST commonly used things are available i europe, youtube, most amazon services, etc. So for major services, you wont notice a difference.
However smaller websites that use Amazon's AWS for hosting are NOT going to pay to be hosted locally in europe if 99% of traffic is coming from US only.
>the majority of their servers are hosted in the US
source?
For amazon, just go to the AWS status page.
The server list for the US is larger than any other region.
Further, the company is BASED in the US. the VAST majority of their employees are also based in the US, of course the majority of the infrastructure is also in the US.
Not to mention the US intelligence apparatus uses Amazon servers for on-demand computing and other needs. If you work at an amazon data center in northern Virginia most positions require you to have a top secret security clearance because there is a huge number of servers set aside for the US intelligence cloud.
for a remote valley filled with chavs in the UK, it's not so bad
>The server list for the US is larger than any other region.
Many small ones vs a couple giant ones in Eemshaven?
>the VAST majority of their employees are also based in the US, of course the majority of the infrastructure is also in the US.
You don't need that many employees for a data center.
And you can place them anywhere as long as you have good connections and cheap electricity.
Chile
50 Mbps Down
10 Mbps Up
Two months ago I had
20 Mbps Down
1 Mbps Up
Good job ignoring the most significant portion.
The US intelligence apparatus piggy backs on AWS servers. It's on demand, meaning if they need more servers, they'll spin more up, or switch public servers over to doing whatever needs to be done.
Besides the very large numbers of servers already set aside for this particular use case, these servers being on demand means when they aren't in use, they can be spun up with instances for public facing content.
If you're actually so deluded to think there are more amazon and google servers in Europe than in the US, lol.
Now there might be more servers in TOTAL in europe, but MANY simply wouldn't be owned by mega corps like amazon and google.
>If you're actually so deluded to think there are more amazon and google servers in Europe than in the US, lol.
I just don't see how America has the bandwidth.
America is 3rd world tier when it comes to internet.

10Mbps Down
1Mbps Up
The average for my cunt is 20 down and 2 up
FTTH isn't the same as backbone you retard.
I don't think America's biggest internet exchange even ranks in the top 20 globally lol.
Say if your connection has to pass through a junction box that's not equipped for that rate (such as one I have to pass through that was made in the 70's or something, no matter what my ISP technicians do, they can't get it to exceed 7.7Mbps, however it has near zero latency as my ping is never above 10ms.. it's slated for replacement in 2 years).
You would see a major decrease in your data rate, besides the ping bump.
However the other guy trying to argue with you is just being an autistic ass.
also i have access to 2gbps, but it's pointless without having server equipment since most things have 1gbps NICs.
>I don't think America's biggest internet exchange even ranks in the top 20 globally lol.
wow you've confirmed yourself as retarded.
Of the top 20 exchanges the US participates in 2 of the top 3. And is the sole country for 2 others (besides canada on the Seattle exchange) and is a participant in a handful of others in the top 20.
Not to mention exchanges in the US are VERY different from the EU, our population is MUCH further afield than in europe where having a few hubs makes sense since you're all crammed into a tiny geographic location.

You realize this means absolutely nothing right....RIGHT?
Millibits per second? What are you, stupid?
And you realize you're still BTFO because of the 2 sole exchanges the US runs in the top 20...right?
You sure are showing off that superior European schooling I've heard so much about.
Frankfurt+Amsterdam+London is bigger than the rest of the world combined.
I don't think anyone would argue that, it's probably the highest population density of internet connected people in the world by far.
You've got 9+ nations with 500M+ people.
>nobody wanting to connect to us is good
>host your server here it's great you can't connect to any non-US networks without going through a 2nd exchange...
No wonder American internet is so abysmal.
For the majority of the US that might be true, but for us on the coasts with access to the larger ISP networks that are right up against the transatlantic connections, it's not too bad.
Here is me testing to london
You don't think you quite grasp what "combined" means.
You see: all data being transferred in USA + Japan + Korea + Canada + South America + rest of Asia + Australia + Southern Europe + Eastern Europe + Africa...is LESS than the data being transferred in just the North-West of Europe.
7.4 billion people have "less internet" than 100 million people.
