40down, 6up, 50USD/mo go USA! Only other option is Starlink which already had and was too unreliable.

380/260, for βgigabit fiberβ
1Gbit fibre, they offer up to 3Gbit but I really donβt see the need right now and donβt have the hardware to take advantage of it right now.
~1000/1000 (usually more like 1300m on speed tests when wired)
$55/month here in the Northeast USA

5 mbps for 18β¬/month... Fuck this I'm switching back to pidgeons.
1200/35 for $120 US/month. I also own my own modem and router. Otherwise it would be another $15-$20/month.
Anything cheaper knocks my upload down to 20 and saves me very little. Viewing my options now hides upload rates but I checked a few months ago when my promotional rate expired and the price jumped $40.
1000/20 is $115, 800 is $110, 500 is $105, 300 is $90, 150 is $68
Any competitors don't qualify as broadband anymore. Maybe 35/5? I didn't even bother checking the price.
At least it's fairly stable and "unlimited" but I'm fairly sure they can say that and still cap it at 200GB/month or something. Oh, and I can connect their surveillance device... I mean "free streaming box"... and get Peacock at no extra cost!
'murica?
300 mbps, symmetrical, ~30 usd/mo.
Β£21/mo for a 100Mb/s VDSL connection split at 80/20: speeds as advertised, ~10ms latency. I'm living in the centre of a large market town in the North of England.
Two doors down, my neighbour is paying Β£25/mo for symmetric gigabit FTTP with negligible latency, but the fibre network doesn't extend to my property. Fuckers.
Oh, I also have a backup/travel LTE service which provides about a 1150Mb/s down and 300Mb/s up with 20ms latency which costs me Β£18/mo.
250/40 no caps, 70β¬/month, germany on the edge of a city. The city has fiber but weβre not there yet. Stuff is slow in germany since telekom owns most of the infrastructure and is a private company that really needs to be disowned rn!
1.2 Gbps at fast.com. Very lucky to live in a location that offers fiber.
100/100 for 22,000 KRW/month (about $16.50 USD).
Other options with my provider:
- 500/500 for 35,750 KRW ($26.85)
- 1000/1000 for 41,250 KRW ($31)
- 2500/2500 for 44,000 KRW ($33)
- 5000/5000 for 55,000 KRW ($41.31)
- 10000/10000 for 82,500 KRW ($62)
And that 100/100 is effective. Shit downloads fast
One of many, many reasons I'm not fond of going back to the US. Maybe Europe next, we'll see. For now, Korea is pretty sweet
I'm paying 50eur for 250 in Germany but I'm only getting 10-15 because of the shitty cabling in our house. Yay!
Do you own the house? Both coaxial cable and CAT6 (or CAT5) cable is extremely cheap and doesn't really require any special tools or know-how to run. Obviously I have no idea what your situation is, but it might be worth replacing the cable yourself.

300/300 here. $40
25/10 for 65AUD/m (43USD/m). Australia, NBN (monopoly across entire country, technically government owned but run like a private corp because of politics). It's the lowest speed now available, but it's already overpriced. $780/year is far more than all of my wifi capable equipment is worth together, including laptops.
100/120
1000mbps / $100 / month
45d/15u
Pay for 500/500 but am eligible to get as high as 1500/1500. Don't really see the need. Ping to Boston is almost always 7-14ms. Really lucky to be able to get fibre to the home after so many years of piss poor unreliable cable that would go down weekly
100
500 down maybe 50 up I forgot the up speed
980/980 fiber, $65/mo in Colorado
it's supposed to be 100mb/s but in reality it's about 0.5mb/s, I've seen it drop as low as 5kb/s (my landlord is a cheapscate and won't replace the busted wifi extender in my uni dorm block)
My last speed test gave me 64/67 Mbps
3-5MB/s download on my computer, 1-3MB/s on my phone.
Starlink. Between 20 down, to 380 down, depending on where I am. Have never gone higher.
depends on the time of day and the status of a particular cable that runs under the ocean. anywhere between 4kbps and 20mbps.
On average around 40/5 depending of the day. I've got an option for fibre aswell but 4G is much cheaper

150/150 fiber.
14 download and 8 upload.
.... mbps could mean both but one should differ between Mbps and MBps.
100 Mbit (Mbps) enables a max download speed of: 12.5 MBps....

50/6 :( 'Murca!
1Gbps down, 0.7Gbps up.
Well that's a lie actually as some workers have cut the line thursday and it's down to 100Mbps down and a ridiculous 1.5Mbps up over a 4G link :-/
390 down/340 up. I pay for 300/300, and it always tests higher, and at a price less than I paid for 100/10 service from the cable company. And it has about 1/3rd the latency as cable. Love having fiber. Worth noting that cable went to 300/20 as soon as fiber came to the neighborhood for the same price they charged before. Competition rules.
