I have an unlimited gigabit connection that I pay $120NZD per month for. And for content on good CDNs or hosted in the country I do get near the advertised speed. It took me just under 4 minutes to download the Star Wars Battlefront 2 beta from Origin which had a size of 23.78GB, averaging 90+ MB/s.
I probably use around 5TB of data per month as well.
- Cyph0n 9y agoDamn, that's not bad at all! For comparison, I pay 40 USD for a 20 Mbit connection with Xfinity here in the US. Oh, and I only get 1 TB of data per month.
- chrisper 9y agoI am so glad I moved out of Comcast territory.
- krzyk 9y agoNice, do you have also uplink with gigabit? In Poland I ave 300/30 Mbit (they connected fiber to my house recently) for 50 PLN (it is about 19 NZD, or 13 USD) per month. They offer 600/60 in some cities (where there is more competition), but I don't know the price, I think is is more in 80PLN range. And plan to start also 1 gbit plan (probably with 100 Mbit uplink).
- chrisper 9y agoIn Switzerland I have gbit up and down and pay like 90 CHF (92 USD) in a month. I use the G Suite Google Drive and get nearly full gbit while up and downloading.

- hrrsn 9y agoNot the guy you asked, but here the speeds are set by the fibre infrastructure holders, not the ISP. So on residential connections the fastest you'll get is 900/500. I pay $129 NZD (~335 PLN). Not symmetrical, but damn impressive nonetheless.
