75/70 at 23 euros a month. It’s cheap and enough for our family to simultaneously stream HD content. Gigabit internet is available but I’m not really sure it’s necessary. My son has 14 ping while gaming. That’s satisfactory.
380/260, for “gigabit fiber”
1000 down and 100 up for ca 40 euro a month
Damn, I pay something like £65 for that speed in the UK.
800/250
My promo deal is about to end but I’ve been paying $50/month for it for 2 years now.
300/300 here. $40
1gb symmetrical $70 a month…
1Gbit fibre, they offer up to 3Gbit but I really don’t see the need right now and don’t have the hardware to take advantage of it right now.
1000 down and up. Realistically it’s usually around 970 but still.
1-5Mbps during the day.
It is what it is.But! If I had smartphone with MediaTek SoC (or root access), I could get 30-40Mbps. Currently I get this by using a VPN 24/7.
Lemmy explain:
My carrier (Swan) only has cell towers in 1800MHz band. They partnered with other carrier (Orange) to extend their coverage. Originally, this was done using so called “National roaming” in 2G and 3G. For purposes of internet connectivity, 2G is irrelevant. This was awesome as I could just manually choose Orange and get faster speeds. Unfortunately, Orange shut down their 3G network, and the license was updated so they now provide Swan with 4G except in 800MHz band.
What’s different? It’s not done via “National roaming” anymore, but the phone signs into Orange’s network natively as Swan, without roaming, and it is not possible to manually select Orange anymore.
So, how would MediaTek help me?
They have “Engineer mode”*#*#3646633#*#*with “Band mode” selection where you can allow specific bands manually.
Remember that Swan only has towers in 1800MHz band? Yep, I could disallow that, and stick to Orange towers (also limiting myself from their B3 towers, but whatever).I have tested that with my old MediaTek phone, and it works. So it’s a functional concept.
(Same thing can be achieved on rooted Qualcomm and app like NSG)I found one more workaround (no, not using a jammer which would be illegal). I found out that I won’t get switched away from Orange as long as there is a continuous connection. So, I can take a bus into area without Swan coverage and connect to a VPN using OpenVPN TCP (didn’t help with UDP), and then head back. Important thing is to never disconnect, not even for a second.
That’s how I am currently on 2100MHz from Orange. I must stay connected 24/7.We do not have internet at home, so this is all I have. Overnight downloads go brrr…
“Pfft on a good day” mbps
92.86 down
… mbps could mean both but one should differ between Mbps and MBps.
100 Mbit (Mbps) enables a max download speed of: 12.5 MBps…
I’ve never seen transfer rates given in MBps in the wild. It’s always Mbps.
Serial network connections give no care to byte alignment, they operate either bit by bit or symbol by symbol (which are rarely byte aligned).
I mean we are throwing accuracy out the window by using milli anyway so who the hell cares , at this point I’m afraid people are using “m” to mean JEDEC mega , ie per IEC mebi (“Mi”) , not even mentioning how stupid using the “p” infix looks when surrounded by SI or SI adjacent units

It’s a factor of 8 we’re talking about. That’s not far off from a factor of 10. If a factor of 10 difference is important enough to get its own prefix in SI, I think a factor of 8 difference is plenty enough to care about having clarified notation. This isn’t like the mega/mebi thing where the drift is only on the order of 3%.
500/500 for around 10 eur per month
I guess Poland? I know from my colleagues that internet infrastructure jumped from old slow stuff to fiber there and it’s fairly cheap.
Close enough guess. Russia
1000mbps / $100 / month
Starlink. Between 20 down, to 380 down, depending on where I am. Have never gone higher.
