$80 1Gbps symmetrical fiber. Speed tests are usually 800+ down/1Gb up, but usually can get 1Gb down on steam games. Portland, Or

Australia, 1000 down but only 50 up, AUD$140 per month, there are slightly cheaper plans available but the guys i'm with are super good to deal with.

Considering switching to 250/100 for the better upload but its $200 per month which is just silly.

Santiago, Chile. 900/900 Synmetrical fiber, I pay around $25 USD per month. No caps, no static IP, I can manage my own ports and I use my own Mikrotik Hex S.

$55USD (after taxes/fees) for 50/10 (very consistent). I could get gigabit for $125, but we don't need it and I'd need to upgrade my network to support it. My city is rolling out fiber over the next couple of years, so I'll probably wait until I know more before I upgrade my network.

Rural Oregon. 1gbps up and down. $600/month. I never go below ~930mbps each way.

100Mbps download of fiber optic network for 11.50 €/mo. I'm from Lithuania, which has always had a good internet coverage. The supplier is Cgates. They offer cheaper alternatives if you agree for a 1-year or 2-year plan.

10mbps 4G router for 20€/month in Finland

I have fibre too but it's more expensive so I don't see a reason to pay more when my current one works just fine too.

1000/1000 Mbps fiber for $43 in Denmark, no data cap.

500M/250M $80/month

Seriously overpriced here. I used to pay $25 for fiber 1G/1G

[–] dixius99 2 points 2 years ago

In Ontario, Canada, 500/500 fibre from Bell. I pay $60/month, though this is a promotional rate for 2 years. I think I will be paying double after the 2 years.

"Rural" Texas (about an hour from a big city) and the only thing we have available is ADSL at 10/1 mbps on a good day. I'm paying $65 and as long as we don't stram 2 things at once it works!

[–] ButtholeAnnihilator 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You could look into forming a community ISP. Its often easier in rural areas because in cities the big telecom companies already own all the infrastructure needed to lay cable, in the country there's less red tape. Some guy in Michigan did it for himself and his neghbors then expanded to a few hundred people.

1000/1000 fiber line but we sub to the 500/500 rate since that’s more than enough for the 5 of us in Colorado. We pay $60 month to month. No cap. We can move between two services, change the speed any time, and even turn it off whenever. Real world tops out at 500/500 on wired. Wireless on 6 not E is 420/250.

1000/1000 Mbps, $49 a month, Arizona

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

UK here.

1000Mb/s symmetric FTTP, unlimited data for £29/mo, though I'm currently paying £1/mo as part of a promotion from YouFibre. Speeds as advertised, especially moving data to my server at work which is also on YouFibre - it's like being on-site.

I've also got an unlimited data SIM card as a backup. Speeds vary but it's usually over 800Mb/s down and 200Mb/s up. That's £15/mo from Three.

If you're in the states, the FCC has a tool to look this info up. It's really useful when you move to a new area: https://broadbandmap.fcc.gov/home

edit: not cost, but just like availability. Still good info though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Usa, FL. $120/month for AT&T gigabytes fiber. Tho best I’ve seen is like 900mbps both ways.
