Home WiFi speeds and 5G speeds

The ratio is too big. Home WiFi plan is around 45€ where as my phones data plan is just 10€ per month

Verizon 5G with 3G speeds

This is the best signal on a good day, I have to use multiple open WiFi networks to get better signal until they disconnect or there’s none

Some websites refuse to load under 5G and barely load under LTE, optimum cable WiFi for us absolutely smashes the 5G Verizon speeds

Russia (Rostelecom) Fiber. Krasnodar Krai.

It's 300/300 symmetrical, but, due to bad uplink of the current vless:// config (speedtest is banned here) I lost some upload speed, but that's okay.

8$ per month.

I'm getting ~400 Mbps on Spectrum Internet Ultra plan (up to 600Mbps) here in Austin, TX.

I can get up to 600Mbps, but often get less. It's usually not less than 100 though so it's fast enough for my needs.

I ran these tests on the speedtest app that I built called internetsloth.com - feel free to give it a try. The goal is to make it more accurate, less invasive, and generally better experience than Ookla. I'm still working out bugs, so I'll be announcing later this month, but very open to feedback in the meantime.

Verizon 5G mmWave hitting 7 Gig download (I think fastest yet)

For everyday use on smartphone , how fast you need your connection?

For me it looks like 99% of users would not spot any difference if we limit their mobile internet to 10mbit which is enough for messengers, full hd streaming etc. For software updates or large files yeah quite slow but it could be done via wifi.

In Canada you can compare speed and plans, any other tools elsewhere that do both?

We built a speed test that does more than show download and upload speeds.

After the test, it compares your result with internet plans available at your location, so you can see if your current speed matches what you are paying for, and what similar plans might cost.

I’m curious if tools like this exist in other countries too. Most speed tests show performance, but they don’t usually connect it to plan pricing.

You can try it here: planhub.ca/speed-test

I think this may be a good video for beginners on home internet speed testing

Earlier this year, I retired from my 45 year career in computers and networking. Thought I'd give making a YouTube video a shot to occupy some of my newly found free time. Took me a while to learn the tools for making a video but I finally finished my first video. It is a very comprehensive video on Internet Speed Testing. Perhaps I made it too comprehensive as the video is nearly 90 minutes long. The first 20 minutes of this video provide a good introduction to bandwidth, latency, jitter, packet loss, etc. Then I go into demonstrating a series of speed tests. (Links to all the testing sites I used can be found here: https://kantack.com/speedtests/ ) Finally I spend the last 15 minutes or so of the video on some limitations and caveats regarding speed testing.

If you're interested in seeing the video, the title is:  Internet Speed Tests: The Ultimate Deep Dive Guide   Direct link is: https://youtu.be/IRFNlbuNDLA

As this is my first video, I'd be interested in what I can do to improve on future videos. If I make more videos, I plan on them all being related to home computing and/or home computer networking. Thanks for any feedback you have either on the content or presentation.
