I pay $65 for 45 Mb/s in the city here in the US. I would love 250 at this point. The apartments a quarter mile away have fiber though. I’m not salty at all.
Holy shit, where do you live? In Oklahoma City, you can get gigabit for $100/mo. In certain places, a local competitor offers gigabit fiber service for $85/mo. We can’t pay the setup cost for fiber just yet, but plan to jump on in the next year or two. For now, we have cable Internet at 500 Mbps for $70/mo.
The Internet in my area has got way better very fast though. We were paying $60 for 25 Mbit back in '17. When we got the opportunity to go up to 150 Mbit, I was blown away. It’s still cool downloading huge games in like 20 minutes. When I had 5 Mbit in '14, downloading a big game was something you started before bed and played the next day when you got off work.
West Fort Worth, TX. Like I said, there’s fiber at the new apartments a quarter mile down (both ATT) the road yet our housing development is DSL of all fucking things. Many parts of FW have fiber and generally better service, but all these telecom back door agreements fuck everyone over. ATT has a monopoly in this area so we have no other choices. It fucking sucks. On top of the trash is the 1.5 terabyte cap, which their fiber service doesn’t have. Make sense of that for me because I sure as hell can’t.
i pay about double that for less than half the speed here in the midwestern u.s., and it goes out for 20 minutes to an hour, or longer, at least twice a week.
I pay that amount for 1000 Mbit at Vodafone. Shit quality still though.
I think really terrible is Germany’s mobile internet though. Slow, expensive as hell and terrible coverage.
Germany is shit for Internet connections…
Expensive and slow…
How slow?
How expensive?
I pay about 50€ for 250 Mbit/s unlimited in the city, which is one of the faster reasonable options available.

Yeah this is Telekom Fiber so at least the connection is stable and low latency. I had Vodafone before but couldn’t game on the connection.
I wish. I pay 30€ for ~24 Mbits
45€/month for 250 Mbits/sec in ADSL. 85€ for 1Gbps in optic fiber (250Mbps upload)
I have the ADSL connection, and sometimes in hot summer it disconnects. Same in case of thunderstorm.
Back in France, I had 1Gbps (up and down) optic fiber for 40€, and not a single interruption in 4 years.
