    What is your internet speed and how much are you paying?

    I'm paying about 75 a month I think.

    I live in Albania and I know that the speeds will seem very slow to everyone here, but that is the best speed you can get here with reasonable prices. I currently pay 16.5 euros/month for this internet connection and I can say it is very stable :)

    I have FiOS too and I get similar download speed but how you have such high upload speed? I don't think Verizon offers such a good ratio between the two in any of their plans.

    Mine is slow in comparison but it is fine to me. I was going to switch to another company but the only others have DSL and are way slower. Right now I am
    capped at 80 gigs a month for about $70 but there is nothing else available.

    I have Time Warner and pay about $50 a month. I wish there was a cheaper option but if my husband wants to play online I have to pay for it.

    From memory, I get around 12 DL, 0.7 UL, with a ping of around 40/45. I'm unsure how much it is, as it's part of a TV phone and internet package. It's fairly priced though. (I'm with Sky Broadband btw)

    It's kind of slow right now, but it's usually faster in the afternoon.

    We have 1 to 2 mbps and we are paying 1000 pesos per month which is really disappointing from smart broadband here in the Philippines.

    I pay around $30 per month on my broadband subscription, and the speed isn't always that great, so we're thinking of switching to another internet service provider. We only have 4 major ISP's in our country, so there's not a lot of options to choose from.

    We only pay $30 per month average where I live. It's supposed to be 100mpbs but I'm pretty sure we're only getting half of that but it does the job and it's not very expensive so I don't mind too much. I'll be going for an upgrade soon so I can use it for gaming without the interruptions or lag.

    My internet speed is pathetic. My internet connection is with Sky and I don't pay very much for it as it comes in a package with the satellite TV subscription and the phone. I think our problem is that we are relatively far from the exchange.

    I pay £22.99/month for 16mbps. In practice I usually get around 11-12mbps download and around 0.5mbps upload

    Here is my most recent speed test

    I pay $45 a month for 18Mbps. Most of the time I don't even get half that. I hate AT&T so much... It's my only choice at the moment.

    We have cable Internet and it is bundled - home phone, cable and Internet. For the whole package it is about $135 a month (with all the taxes, box rentals and fees.) Our speed is about 7Mbs download and 1Mbs upload. Fast enough for us and they are very reliable for all the services so we are happy. They had just upgraded us for no charge to the 7Mbs but our computers are a little older so the Internet is faster then our computers!

    I am on a Wi-Fi connection now, and it's the slowest connection compared to everyone else's! It's really slow! :D The one that I use at home has a download speed of about 30 plus Mbps. I don't think that's too bad. However, I am learning that I need a faster connection to do all the work that I need to do online.
