200mbs download 100mbs upload. It's included with the apartment. But if I was paying it'd be like $60

Edit : I only get like 50up though but I don't care enough to Complain. As long as my download is OK

In a major UK city centre, no fibre, £35 a month for 'up to' 17mb. Unbelievable.

I feel you bro.

I pay £35 for BT Broadband (that also includes BT Sport + line rental) for "up to 17mb"

My phone infrastructure means I'll get 9mbps if I'm lucky. I can't get fibre at the moment.

:(

15 mbps unlimited, around $30/month

however in reality it's rare to reach full speed 15 mbps, on average i often only get 10-12 mbps

i live in Indonesia

Man I was paying the same op when i was with shaw but i only got like 50 down and 4 up or some bullshit like that.
 
100/35, no throttling, unlimited, ~50 USD/month

Lucked out with the apartment. Who knew an ISP striking a deal with an apartment would actually be good for the residents? I still do have the option to go for other ISPs but this is cheaper than any of the equivalent plans I find online.

Edit: Just checked. Holy cow I'm averaging 600GB/month for 4 people, peaking at 800GB. This is a lot higher than I expected.

1 Gbps up/down, no limits, ~5k yen ($46). Japan.

Edit:
The above is on paper, the actual speed:

6 down, 1 up.
50€
Rural Northern Germany. It's also the fastest available connection and it'll probably stay that way for the next 20 years.

Edit: My ISP recently told me that I could hire external contractors to build a landline to the nearest village (about 3 miles away). So I asked a local contractor, he estimated the costs to be about half a million €. Worth it for 50 down?

UK - Between 5 and 8Mbps at the moment, however I should hopefully have fibre in the next few months. Virgin stopped up the street so I can't get cable. I work for Sky so get broadband for free.
 
Optus cable internet in 2017 on Sydneys Northern Beaches (8:30 on a Sunday night)...

Complete and utter garbage. Yes, that is POINT ONE SEVEN of 1 MB download speed. lol

4Mb down/1Mb up.

The internet itself is $50/month but with the phone line we need to have it, it's $85/month.

I live in the "rural" part of VA, only about 20 minutes from a town where you can get Comcast 100 down for like $50.
 
Some redonkulus speeds here, thought I had finally catched with 50 down and 10 up lol.

Best part is my connection randomly quits on me for a few seconds/minutes which makes this a bigger aggrevator than when I was on 3Mbps when everything was slow AF but stable.

Vied for a tag related to cocks, so here it is.
UK, £26 for 50mbps (fibre). Could be getting Virgin's ridiculous 300 but just me and my girlfriend in the house 50 felt like enough, I mean it certainly is.

Before it was like £30 for up to 18mbps because, like an earlier poster, I lived in the city centre in a listed building with no fibre connection. Every other bloody building around us had it.

Longmont is special in that it got some sort of exemption early on and was able to build out its own fiber internet service many years ago and then expanded it to residents. City planning-wise they made a lot of good moves, they also provide the local power and water which is generally cheaper than the surrounding areas because it's not for-profit, and have had a free bus program for the last 2 years.

No other city in Colorado has this, they all pay Comcast/Century Link hostage pricing though a lot of them have noticed how successful NextLight has been.

Interesting...how are real estate prices?

40ish € for 16/2. Thank you quasi monopoly Telekom! (Rural Germany)
I shall not complain, we've been stuck on like 2/0.384 before. But in comparison to some other contracts being posted here... 😑

At least they recently installed fiber cables in the past weeks, we should be upgraded to 30, 50 or 100 this fall. Based Mr Söder

Mine is $169 to Cox. I think it is 50/5. Fast enough to stream 4k HDR . So I see no need to pay for more.

Also includes cable TV and phone. Never use the phone. I think it just came with the bundle.

With the size of game downloads and patches I managed to use 500GB in 10 days, it is amazing how quick you can go through usage allowance with fibre internet.

30 bucks a month for 100 mbs download and I think 20 upload, but if I had the right infrastructure where I live I would pay the same for up to 1 gb download.
my actual speed is more around 75 though.

Wow internet is expensive in the US huh.

I pay £28 a month for 40Mbps down. I could get 80 for £35 but honestly it's just me at home so 40 is fine. Before I moved house my old place didn't have fibre and I was paying £30 for 6Mbps 🙃 (screw BT)
 
8-9Mbps down, 1.3 up, $70/month in Western Australia, unlimited data. I have to limit Steam to 1,000kbps when I'm downloading a game or it eats up everything I've got and I can't browse the internet any more :p

I'm still on that 150/150 bs but switching to Gigabit in a week or two for around $90. I can't freaking wait.

Bristol UK. I have BT infinity, 80mb fttc. Unlimited usage, no throttling anymore I don't think. Upload is around 18-20mb

Costs me £41 a month, that includes line rental etc as the cabinet is 50yds away so I need the phone line for the last bit.

Speed test, I get almost full speed. I've had it for a number of years now and it's been rock solid. Has fallen over once in that time for half an hour.
