So i just bought BF: Hardline for 4.99 and started downloading, then i noticed it was 42 GB..... so ive been waiting for 4 hours and cant play anything online now until its done :P since origin is not the fastest, i get 1-3 Mbps and so i was wondering what speed is average.
To kill the time, what is your downloading speed?? :)
No GA this time, since im a poor student xD

You get 1-3 mb? Damn that's lucky. I barely get 500kb and sometimes it just drops to absurdly low levels in bits.

Wow thats even worse.. ive slowly upgraded over time, started with 500kb too and went to 2-3 and now to 4.5 but origin cant manage xD if you need to download big games with 500 kb you might need some time :P

I guess I don't feel that bad knowing you had to go through 500 kb as well lol. However my college actually has about 5-8 mb download speed which is really awesome. But its summer vacation here so I wont be using that internet for a while.

I have 50/70 Mbps since a couple of months, before that my maximum was around 10/2. At that time I used my phone to tether 4G if I really couldn't wait.

I just got lucky, they upgraded the neighborhood with fiber so all the providers wanted as many customers as possible.
I ended up getting the modem and everything installed for free, and my line cost is €32,50 a month.
Had to negotiate between 3 providers though, my neighbors took the first offer and ended up paying 60,- a month for 20/20.

My actual download speed is approximately 850-900 kb/s <<< yes, they're kilobytes! (better known as 7 Megabit/sec ADSL).
€45 per month for this and phone line with unlimited calls (Italian providers don't make contracts for internet alone), with an optional extra €5 per month to upgrade to 16 Megabit/sec (actually 2 Megabytes/sec).

thats pretty expensive for that speed, i pay the same amount for ~4.5 mbps(actual speed) and have tv+phone in the same bundle

The most glaring problem is that they really shove us with next-to-useless home phone line, that covers up almost two thirds of the total price.

And that's pretty much as cheap as it gets, as Italian providers don't like to reward long-time customers, instead keeping their best offers for new ones (they usually pay about half, but only for 6-12 months).

Fiber optics isn't really an option for me, as my zone isn't yet covered, but the contracts are way better (something like 20 Megabit/sec minimum for almost the same price)

This is my Speedtest result (in Megabits, apparently it's the only possible output on images), and it's one of the better ones lately:

We've had dial-up until 2007, 640/96kbps (yes, kilobits per second) (32€/month) until 2012, then another isp came and we've had 2/0,5mbps (megabits), then 4/0,5mbps and now 7/0,5mbps (all upgraded for free) for about 25€/month. All these connections (excluding dial-up) have always been wireless, so they didn't come with the telephone line (which we dismissed last year for insane fixed costs).
The price is reasonable now (for what it offers), download speed is nice, but uploading at 0,5mbps is a pain in the arse.
Maybe there's a chance next year there will be fibre in our whole region, but frankly, I doubt it.

You mixed the < and > signs, should be >20 MB/s (for more than 20 MB/s) and <500 KB/s (for less than 500 KB/s).
I'm paying around $15 for 10 Mb/s (not MB/s), but my shitty connection is giving me only a 1,5 Mb/s = ~140 KB/s download. That's kind of money is pathetic for this connection, but I can't get a better one (by cable), because I live in a village (well, 2 km from a big city, so...).

Honestly, I don't really mind it. For now, I don't need more then that. Sure it's annoying if you have to wait for a game to finish downloading and it takes a full day (especially since other online games and thing like youtube won't work well during), but I can live with that. I just download during the night :p

Wait, your post says mbps whereas your poll says MB/s. I get 2MB/s which is the equivalent to 16mbps. The former refers to bytes while the latter refers to bits.

I get ~900Mbps down / 20Mbps up :0

Sometimes in steam I hit over 100 MB/s(mega-bytes). It's insane

I do not pay for it directly, it's included in my monthly rent but my rent is not very high. In USA.

x < y : means x is smaller than y
x > y : means x is bigger than y
you should have used [speed]<500 and [speed]>20. Also, there is a difference between KB and Kb (the later one is 1/8).

Right now I have TV + 200Mb/s for 15euro. From Steam I download with 15-20MB/s.

Can't. No other providers around here except for my current ISP and they are fucking crooks. They raised the prices for their service just a few months ago without upgrading or mentioning any possible upgrades in the future.
