I get Ping = 11 ms, Download = 360.61 Mbps and Upload = 12.01 Mbps which usually works well since a typical home user downloads many megabytes of data for uploading few hundred byte request.

My download speed is 22.5 Mbps, and my upload speed is 2.4 Mbps, ping 25ms. Paying $20/month. Works okay for me.

Other countries often have better speeds because the US infrastructure is for the most part the oldest and the less expensive route is for the companies to work with what they have. When an area gets new phone/power line tech, like fiber optic things may change a lot. But except for commercial use and a few others, the upload is always sort of the forgotten stepchild.

I have had one account for almost 30 years, but due to mergers and buyouts I am on, I think, my 4th or 5th provider by name = Spectrum.
I have their basic service, for $20 more a month I could have 500 mbps download/20 upload and for $40 1000 download/35 upload.

I live in an older residential area of Corona, CA and the ultra upload speeds for commercial uses are not available in my area as of yet.

Get yourself a Netgear Night Hawk Modem, use that in place to the modem the cable guy gives you. Totally legal, work great and cable people can't mess with you.

These are my numbers via WiFi. Much faster directly from the modem via ethernet cable. Provider is Bell Canada.

I got 302 Mbps download and 218 Mbps upload. The testing said we have very fast internet speeds.
With 6 ms latency.
The system we are on uses fiber optic cable.

I am in Richmond, Virginia and I get about the same up and down speeds (Verizon ISP).

In New Mexico, I’m getting 892 MBPS download, and 265 Mbps upload. We have the Xfinity 1.1 Gbps plan.

I get almost the same speeds as TonyP (1st page). Great having these speeds for local content but most of what I look at is overseas where we are at the mercy of a couple of Trans Pacific bottlenecks. You can actually see response drops at peak periods usually just after school gets out and during mid evenings. Streaming 4k video you get stutters during those times.

I'm getting about 65mb down, about 10mb up. Service is suppossed to hit a maximum of 70 dependent on losses.
I can get faster but I don't need it. 4 people in this house all with their own PC's (two gaming) and we can run all of them and view a Prime 4K movie at the same time.

Whatever speed you are capable of is going to be restricted by the weakest link in the path.

A couple of months ago, I upgraded my Frontier FIOS service from 300 Mbps to 1 Gbps service. A Frontier technician had to come out to change or modify the ONT (where the fiber comes into the house). Now paying $15.00 more per month than the previous speed.


FIOS isn't available here. They didn't think there were enough houses to justify the cost of running the cable.

I was surprised to see upload speed was faster than download.
