My Internet Speed

I saw an infographic about broadband Internet speeds around the world. It seems there's a huge difference in the speed with which various countries can connect to the Internet. Around the globe the average speed is 8.61 Mbps. Fastest on average is Japan with 61 Mbps. The average in the USA is 4.6 Mbps. The average here in the Netherlands is 9.0 Mbps. Here's the infographic.

Of course, averages don't say everything about one's personal Internet speed. I just sealed a new contract with my provider for the highest Internet speed they are offering. I'm now on the high end of this with a speed of 94.72 Mbps, as you can see here.


Take the speedtest to measure your Internet speed.
