    how fast is your internet? how much does it cost?

    just curious as to the cost and speed in different parts of the world.

    i pay CAD $25 (USD $22 18 EUROS) for a 2mbps/768k dsl connection. and i had to buy the modem and line filters seperately.

    10 bucks per half year. 100mbit/s up and down. Gotta love how dormnet is connected to the apartments throughout the city

    Normally though, prices here are around 30-40 USD/month for a 24mbit/s line.

    I'm in a very favourable contract right now; I have 100Mbit/s for ~5€/month, living in a very large student campus.

    I pay 45$ a month canadian and get 375KBps download and 100KBps upload. (In ISP terms that is 3Mbit download and 800Kbit upload)

    Upload matters ALOT to me, as I am almost constantly uploading. If I remember correctly... I have had a torrent running for 24 hours and ive uploaded almost 7GB.

    Download also matters, but not as much. Id have 275KBps download and 200KBps upload instead if I could

    I saw on another site this guy who has 155MB upload. Not 155Mbit, but 155Megabytes per second. Under his avatar it said "Over one terabyte (TB) uploaded in under 50 hours!"


    10 bucks per half year. 100mbit/s up and down. Gotta love how dormnet is connected to the apartments throughout the city

    I get 6 mbit/sec from the local cable co. But I'm paying USD $45/month for it. The good news is that it's pretty solid at 6 Mbps - sometimes even better.

    Re: how fast is your internet? how much does it cost?

    Currently am paying AUD$35 pm for 512K/128K with 8GB free download. from reading the earlier posts, it seems the cost here is a little higher on average than North America and Europe. (and I'm on what is considered a value for money plan in the local broadband forums).
    I am thinking about taking up an offer for AUD$50 pm that will give me up to 20Mbps download with 20GB free, but it means I have to give up my current phone connection.
