What is your current up down speed ? I recently got a speed upgrade for the same price

[jimbob200521]

Microwave dish on the roof pointing at a cell tower type internet. I could upgrade to 50/15 for $150 a month or go back to the only option for a wired connection which is 6/1 AT&T DSL for $60 a month. My subdivision was built without cable infrastructure and I am one street too far away for 18Mpbs Uverse. Any other option involves craptastic satellite internet which is just unacceptable. Even my Verizon 4G connection on my phone tops out at 20Mbps here.

Downside of living outside the city in a town of 2,000 people there are not enough customers to justify infrastructure installation.

Yikes, I feel like I should say a prayer for you or something!

I consider myself really lucky that we got fibre here. Normally only the big cities get the nice stuff but they found that it's actually cheaper to provide service to smaller cities as it's less complex as far as infrastructure goes. The project cost around 10 mil or something like that, I forget the actual figure but it was relatively cheap. They only did overhead cable plant though.

No way, I hear there's plenty of healthy competition in the USA Internet market.

Healthiest market in America

$ 84 pm for 250/50

I was going to get a speed upgrade for the same price through Time Warner Cable. Then Spectrum bought them out and put the fucking breaks on it.

That is just cold...

I would pay $5 for 5x upload. Over 3x download speed would just be a bonus.

Oops, my upload is actually 2Mbps (generally tests around 2.5). Still not that great but I don't have any problems since I only upload the occasional picture or 2.

100mbps for $85. Was upgraded last week from 60mbps for the same price, called to cancel but they upped the speed and my wife wanted the faster speed the competition couldn't match.

15/1, currently paying the $40 per month introductory rate.

I really hope someone comes along to take the crown from me on shittiest speed per $ soon.

Someone already did.

But if it makes you feel better, I got 6.4 Mbps down, and 800 Kbps up. 35 Euros/month.

15mbps at $40 is ~$2.66 per mbps
25mbps at $100 is ~$4.00 per mbps

Herr Kutz has a better value than me. But you are at ~$5.80 per mbps so you win, my condolences.

 

[vissarix]

17/1 for 27 euro/month..i have the option for vdsl2 200/20 but the price is higher 45 euro/month and i dont like the idea plus other expenses when changing provider closing current contract etc..

 

[Genx87]

Comcast. I think it runs around 70\month buried in my overall cable bill.

Speed of me showed 135 Mbps\down, 12 Mbps up.

 

[Chapbass]

100down/100up cogent fiber to my building. Included in my already cheap as hell rent, so I'm going with free.

 

[Mojoed]

5.5Mb/s down and 750Kb/s up.

All for the low, low price of $87/month.

Rural America is internet screwed.

 

[mikegg]

1000/100 Fiber from Sonic.net. $60/month. Unlimited. No spying.

 

[pcslookout]

50 Mbps download but upload sucks at 5 Mbps.

 

[RLGL]

Internet $36.00 for 12Mbps. (DSL) Connected at 15.8 dn and .8 up. Actual is 9.6 Mbps dn and dam slow up. Captive customer no other options.

 

[zCypher]

Best I could get in Montreal before I moved last year was around $65/mo +(lots of) tax for 60mbps down, 10mbps up (cable) with Teksavvy. Now in Edmonton I have Shaw 150 (cable) which is actually QoS'd at 180mbps download, 16mbps upload. I pay $49.95/mo (with much less tax!).

I'm waiting on a fibre build here that would get me 185mbps down, 185mbps up, but even with employee discount I would still pay more than Shaw 150. But it would be worth it on account of the upload rate alone, even if don't upload that much.

Internet services in Canada are lagging behind pretty far compared to some countries, but it's slowly getting there. The situation between incumbents and third party internet access providers is still pretty sad.

 

[FeuerFrei]

nominal 3 Mbps down / .512 Mbps up
Of course the modem's probably connected at 2.36 Mbps currently - guessing.

The line could support 10Mbps max.

5.5Mb/s down and 750Kb/s up.

All for the low, low price of $87/month.

Rural America is internet screwed.

I feel your pain we recently got another option here, much faster but still stupid expensive.

 

[ultimatebob]

I'm getting 24 Mb/s down and 5Mb/s up from Frontier. It's a VDSL product, formerly called UVerse when at&t serviced this state.

I highly doubt that we'll be getting an upgrade any time soon. Frontier is on the verge of bankruptcy due to a bunch of botched mergers, so they won't be laying out any infrastructure upgrades any time soon.

$44.95 a mo. Spectrum 100mb service
Measured..
118mb down
12mb up

I have spectrum too (in TX, and formerly TWC), and I'm on their 100mb plan, but I get 200/20 (235/25 really) and still pay the 100mb plan.

When it was TWC, the 100mb plan gave me the 100mb speeds, but my modem (SB 6141) could handle higher, but I guess TWC locks the channels or something. But once Spectrum took over, guess they unlocked it and now I get 200mb. I'm not complaining.

50/50 with Fios (internet only) @ $55 per month, for one year. Then $65, supposedly, and $75 after 2 years. or so they say....
