Poland, the most popular ISP, for a very long time a monopolist. Price-smth like 15 Euro per month

@Sledgehammer427, Torplexed: you are kidding me, right? I thought the US average is smth like Steve's, not like the outback of Poland...

Download - 42.82 mb/s
Upload - 30.75 mb/s
Ping - 11 ms

But then we pay a buttload per month. But does make my artistic viewing a bit faster.

25 mb/s download
45 mb/s upload
Ping 5ms

(I pay for 25/25, so fingers crossed)

349 Norwegian krones/month (Appartment complex fiber deal) Thats about US $ 60 at the current exchange rate.

For $36 per month., once 30gigs is used up which is rare for me, its $1 per gigabyte after that.

Download speeds usually is 400-700kbps, upload is pittiful something like 50kb

What gets me is I need a land line phone if I want the internet I don't use the phone yet im paying $52 per month phone rental, just a waste of money each month. Waits for the day where a land line is not required to have internet access.

My internet runs $180.00/month but that includes a landline and TV. I'm with Verizon FIOS. I have no issues with it and shouldn't at $180.00/month.

We have the same setup with Fios. Good service but expensive, especially when The Frau insists on every single premium cable channel.

I'm with AT&T U-verse and that's about what I pay. $170 a month for internet, cable with 2 boxes, HD and HBO. Too damn much if you ask me.

Its running kinda slow compared to earlier last month, about 30 mb/s off on the download and 40 mb/s off on the upload
