BTW the fastest average for internet speed is S. Korea
34Mbps. Japan is 18Mbps.
The Singapore avg is 5Mbps and the USA avg is
10Mbps. USA is comparable to Japan and S. Korea and
obviously much slower, but given that Singapore is a city
state I would have expected Singapore to be much higher on the
list. Because the averages for USA, Japan and S. Korea
includes rural areas. The speeds near the population
centers are higher than those averages.
What do you guys get for download speeds on your
smart phones? I wonder if I was getting reduced speeds
because I was roaming. Although as soon as I got to
Frankfurt I ran a speed test using the (speedtest.net) Iphone app
and got nearly the same 1.6Mbps that I get in Boston. I
was roaming there too.
Anyway like I said it was 2 to 3 hundred K down in
Singapore. I was really shocked by that.
Well sir, we do not have fiber optic networks like the United
states.
Please visit Singapore back in the near future. All apartments
in Singapore are in the process or have completed wiring of next
Gen fiber optic boxes, and this tiny dot have just started to roll
out fiber optic plans which are ranging from 100mbps to
1000mbps.
