    1000/1000 for like $3 a month. But that’s with the caveat of living in China, where I need a VPN to access most western websites, so that’s my bottleneck.

    Domestically I can get the full bandwidth when streaming (ton of English content available for cheap), but once I need to use the VPN it drops to maybe 200-300 mbit, depending on the server and current utilization.

    Moving to Malaysia in less than 2 months where I can get 2gbit for about $90 (tested at my friend’s house), but honestly I think I’ll settle on 500. It’s more than I can realistically use in a 2 person household, and it’s like 20 bucks.

    10 Gbps symmetrical for 40 bucks a month TV included. It’s absolutely mind boggling for me how expensive internet is in North America.

      Jesus, 10Gbps!? I’m paying $90 for “gigaspeed” AT&T fiber. But, I’m luckier than most, I have AT&T fiber and Metronet as fiber providers, as well as Spectrum and T-Mobile (but yuck to using 5G as my primary source of internet).

    I have a download speed of 3.5 mbps.

    I never did an actual benchmark but that’s what my system monitor looks like whenever I download something.
