general Do you have good internet where you live ?

[Retro*Derpy 3,081]

For most of my life, no. It was usually around 6-8 mbps down and 0.5 up. Just earlier this year however we got fiber in our town, and have been at a very comfy 100/100.

Its fine enough. Spectrum likes to harass and intimidate us, they purposely read our meters wrong and drive by the house slowly. Maybe they are mad at my internet browsing history....I am surprised the feds haven’t shown up....

[Vefka 1,499]

It's usually 5-10 mb/s

[Pentium100 2,056]

1gbps down, 600mbps up. My country is known for having good internet, mainly because of the competition between various ISPs.

[Clawdeen 12,110]

Its better than what it was at the old place I lived

[Splashee 28,537]

Somehow my POTS internet is working quite well!!!

 

I will regret saying this (future self)

[Dreambiscuit 8,024]

I just got fiber optic installed in my apartment complex. It’s a little better than what I had previously but for all the advertised numbers I would have hoped for a LOT better.

[Savygriffs 5,022]

I actually have better internet at my new place, my other house it just wasn't very good.

[Cirrus. 1,088]

Trash. I don't technically have internet at my house (because other bills) and use my phone as a hot-spot. It's definitely throttled. When I try to use my laptop with it, it's crap.

The only thing that runs decently with it is my Roku thankfully.

The main internet I use is good though at my parents' house by my work. I have my main computer there still since I keep everything up and running over there anyways.

It's good but sometimes has some problem.

[Splashee 28,537]

Still on copper wires! I wonder when I will be forced to get fiber?

[daviddaviddavid 772]

I'll let you guys decide. Personally I'm happy enough with it.

[Astralshy 23,569]

Well, it is sufficient :3

@Polarismoon

Finally moving your thread to Media Discussion.

[ZiggWheelsManning 7,367]

That's very questionable due to the weather  

[Cash In 21,513]

It's alright. No crazy good speeds or anything, but it's stable and gets the job done.

[Pentium100 2,056]

I have two uplinks, the main one is 1G/600M and the backup one is 100M/10M. I got the backup connection for a couple of Euros/month (added to the cable TV bill) and sometimes use it when the primary one fails.

ISP market in Lithuania is very competitive, with people in apartment buildings usually having two or three (or more) wired ISPs to choose from.

[EpicEnergy 22,082]

It's ok where I live. My problem is getting cellular service.

[zerox 1,050]

I have 200mbps down. 

[Longhaul 6,470]

Fairly good, I'd say.  Good uptime and decent transfer rates.

[Dark Horse 12,799]

It's decent, but it could be better honestly. We've been waiting what feels like years for them to upgrade the lines into our house.

[Brony Number 42 9,928]

We have terrible internet. There is no high speed to our area, so we use a hot spot, and that is also not good. I go to the library for big downloads.

[Patty Thundersnow 4,129]

I have gigabit fiber internet from a local company here that me and the parents switched to several years ago after we had many issues with our previous ISP (bad equipment, slow to load, crashed often).

[Silly Druid 6,138]

Yes, it's pretty good. I use a telephone cable connection at 80 Mb/s. I could use a fiber connection, but I don't need it.

[Adariousmist 124]

I have Charter Spectrum.  I average 450 Mbit download and about 35 mbit up.  It's fairly reliable, though they have nearly a monopoly here in the state of Wisconsin.
