Such a rip off... simply because the only alternatives in the area is at best 6Mbit from ADSL, or Wireless/Satellite with their ridiculous latency and datacaps.

Yeah.. when I heard that from some in game fellow players from Australia/Philippines/Malaysia/Some parts of the US about their horrendous ISPs and prices they pay... ugh.

I guess the gigas pun was completely lost there.

I'm from the UK, our internet is cheap compared to most countries but there's not even been a murmer of gigabit internet over here AFAIK

ADSL2+ isn't too bad. For the longest time, it was the best that we had here unless you went with cable, and even then it often times outperformed cable. The problem with cable here is that it is inconsistent: connections to the popular speedtest sites are given priority status, and speeds during the weekend SUCK... That's what happens when your connection is shared on a giant friggin' loop with other leeches.

Now that we have 40mbit and 100mbit symmetric up/down VDSL2 connections, the cable provider is starting to feel the heat.

I pay $30 for that exact service. You should murder someone.

Okay so everybody is posting their speeds, I guess I should post mine.

This is a 4g LTE system off of a cell tower around 7 miles away. Can't really complain about it I guess as I do live in the sticks of Montana....Not too long ago my speeds were half of that....

The system is capable of higher speeds and we might get a 6MB download option in the near future.

don't let the speed test fool you, my ACTUAL download speed is 130 kbps. I might have to tell my raid group to go without me today :(
