L4sBotFCC chair: Speed standard of 25Mbps down, 3Mbps up isn’t good enough anymore
dji386It’s 2023. Anything less than symmetrical gigabit is nonsense. We shouldn’t have to settle for overpriced crumbs from ISPs.
regbin_IMO the focus should be on lowering the prices. A lot of people in my country still rely on spotty mobile data as their primary internet. Imagine 100 mbps fiber for $10 a month, that would be awesome.
Lol In Italy I get gigabit for about 6€
Though let’s be honest, this is not something generally available.
It is throughout Europe. We’ve been getting hosed in the states for years.
Uh, definitely not the case in a few other countries. Actually, gigabit/6€ would be an extreme outlier: www.numbeo.com/…/country_price_rankings?displayCu…
No it’s not. Greetings from Europe.
O RLY? Which ISP?
Right, it’s actually 30€ with TIM, recently upgraded from the €15 plan, my bad. Obviously a huge and glaring oversight. Tell me again what people are paying in the states for a percentage of that speed again and reflexively defend the shit system, please.
RicazA 1 Gbps up/down in Denmark is around 40-50€, and low speeds like 100/100 is more like 25-35€.
Same for Norway and Sweden. Everything is unlimited of course.
You understand that mobile plans are a different product from broadband home internet?
