The cost of internet.

<< < (19/20) > >>

Lumiinous:
Fee: I dunno, all in some package. Somewhere around $100 for everything though.
Bandwidth: 20/2 @ 250GB cap, which is not enforced (because if it were, I'd jump on slower DSL in a heartbeat)
ISP: Charter Communications
Country: US

Speeds tend to stay pretty good. I have the obvious slower speeds during peak hours, but more often than not, I'm fine.

I'd kill for Fiber.

AceD:
Monthly Fee: £38 ($60.86)
Bandwidth: 50Mbit ~ Download = 5.7Mb/s, upload = 190kB/s
Country: England
Service Provider: Virgin Media


Curiously...my seedbox is

Monthly Fee: £40.55 ($64.95)
Bandwidth: unlimited, not shared 100Mbit ~ Download = 11.7Mb/s, upload = 11.7Mb/s
Country: France

and thats with 2gig ram, 500gb harddrive, OS etc.

so really...paying for my country's best internet is a waste of time, might as well get 10Mbit or summin really ¬¬

Proin Drakenzol:




$60/month through the shittiest ISP I've ever used, Americable. They sublet the lines from NTT Docomo and fuck shit the hell up, goddamn bastards. Can't wait to move off base and get better.

kurandoinu:
Internet connection at my parents-



Its about the same as I get at home, except they don't get 'fair useage' capped every sodding month :/

per:
MWnet, municipial fibre-to-the-house 1Gbps connection (shared with TV and phone),
130SEK/month, or $18 (it's a "10 Mbit guaranteed" connection, usually more than 100Mbit)



If you are supposed to include the taxes you pay to the municipality in the calculation, I guess the connection is not all that cheap, though. :-)
