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.

Gigabit for cheap. Service provider employee plan has its perks.

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

I have two services load balanced by my router because reliability isn't so great.

Fiber claimed to be 500/500 for $55 but includes the home phone and runs at about 360/560.

Cable 500/? for $40, runs at about 550/29.

$40/month at Spectrum here in Ohio for 300 down, 20 up.

I pay for 500Mbps down and 50Mbps up, with no caps. Though, I often get a little more than that. I’m in the UK, with Virgin. My plan also comes with a SIM card with unlimited calls, SMS, and capped 2GB data (5G capable). All told I pay about £34, which is roughly $44.

Austin, Texas, U.S. I pay $100 a month for AT&T Fiber, which provides symmetrical gigabit. Real life is around 950-1000 MBPS both ways.

My plan would normally be $85, but I pay $15 extra for a block of static IPs.

[–] d3lta19@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

1Gbps down/150Mbps up. Speeds are almost always consistently at rated speed

Business plan in Alberta with Shaw(now Rogers) $85/month with 1 static IP

It costs about $27.52 for about 185Mbps download and 84.1Mbps upload of fiber internet, Philippines. My parents are paying for it, and they chose the cheapest plan.

My internet is shit but it's cheap. 19 usd a month for 40mbps down and 5 up. It's cheap enough that I can't complain really.
