Remember my post about the average internet connection in Japan, while surfing around today I ran into a detailed chart showing the top 30 countries ranked in terms of internet speed. It’s no surprise who came out on top.
From that post a few months ago till now I have moved up to a 5mb connection from Flow Jamaica, I am not rocking the fastest connection available but lets so how much faster the speeds in Jamaica will get.
Wow, the U.S. is like in the mid spot. I wish we have Japan’s internet speed.
Hey, I’ve got a Flow connection too! To David, getting Japan’s speed seems quite unlikely for us at present.
@ David…you and me both ^_^
@ Leon…welcome to the flow boat Leon ^_^…the shackles of CnW are no more!
It’s cool that Korea is up there considering it’s the "most internet-wired nation in the world" ^_^ It’s quantity and quality :)
it is most likely south korea, not north.
Of course, it’s South Korea. The differences between South & North is enormous.
Where is Jamaicaa? we get 8MB, whats up with that, they fighting us out.
Can u believe i found out about this post on streamy. i just typed in "Jamaica"
@ Shonari…the countries are ranked by "average internet speeds" not the fastest available.
Streamy?….googled and signed up for the beta
Kewl list Canada is ranked # 8 :)
just wondering if anyone know where would Hong Kong stand on that chart? thank you
@ Tongteh…I think Honk Kong would be listed as a part of China and they did not make the top 30 list
Australia is supposedly going to have faster internet after the next election
It is said to have over 20mb sec
I was told in some places u can get 100mb a second
maybe i am wrong
Oh i like cheese puffs
dual comments from Australia….welcome ^_^
the US is the most internet wired nation in the world
not korea
U.S. sucks on Internet speed. Hence, it is not the most wired place. I think Korea and Japan is much ahead of our country.
Dog, where’s your proof?
Arab camel jockey!!! I have been to those countries..that’s my freakin’ proof.
Good one..
Comcast in the United States will have 50 Mbps of downstream and 10 Mbps of upstream soon. The bad thing is that it costs $139.95 per month. WTF!
Dog get your facts straight. The USA is not even close to the most internet wired nation in the world , maybe more wires but because it is way bigger in actually size having to run more wires from one place to get to the next compared with say japan. than top providers. Comcast 50 Mbps of downstream and 10 Mbps of upstream would sure be nice but is petty. Some home users in the top rankes places are getting 101 mbps up and 25-50 down and even way higher than that, like they said its average, so in the USA like Canada its so big land wise we have to run so much more wire across the country then to each house out to the country and such, Canada has 30million people with larger land mass than USA and your have what 300million people 10x ours and…. meaning your companies in NY and large cities can provide lots of people at one time highest of speeds when I think in canada the largest city has what 3 million lol one province alone only has 800,000 people, so when you go by money coming in how close everything is and such USA is doing one poor ass job at providing internet to 85% of its customers.. for speed and price but with japans size landwize they are too. I’n today’s age everyone should be on at least 10mbps/10mbps Hfc or higher and that’s what 10 – 20 year old technology. 13 years ago in my small city of 76k people out telephone company was experimenting giving some dsl users HFC 10mbps up/down our this company had so much wires and so little people and very large size, 13 years ago most people were just getting on the internet with what 56k dialup lol remember those days. then Bell Canada bought it out and well all hell has gone to crap we have what 10mb is our fastest down and 1mbps up, just shows some companys go backwards or worry about so much money… BOO BELL and all you large money hungry companys![[sob]](http://www.jamaipanese.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/sad.jpg)
Also, bear in mind that AT&T (and other phone companies) have been getting huge tax breaks for 20 or more years that were supposed to be funding replacing all that wire with fiber. Needless to say, they’ve been taking the money but not putting in the fiber, so we have a lot of catch up to do.
where is India dude
haha NL is 6th!
above germany! HAHA!
ever played online (FPS) games with Turkish or German people? They lagg like hell!
anoys the crap outta me.
Lmao, typical that australias at the end of that list. Our internet connections are really bad. :/
DO SOMETHING RUDD!
kewl…. canada is ranked 8th :) … i download games at a range of 800kbps – 1.5mbps here.. but JApan is really cool :O … downloading a 1 gb file only takes more or less a minute :O
Now you know that’s not true. If 1GB take more or less a minute then the HDD will crash because it can’t write that fast.
Dudezz came to Bangladesh..Then u’ll understand what is speed !!.we use 50kbps speed.. [zzz].If u ever come to Bangladesh pls use internet then..u’ll say what the F****![[shocked]](http://www.jamaipanese.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/scared.jpg)
I’m very sorry![[japan]](http://www.jamaipanese.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/japan.jpg)
this info is wrong. Korea is ahead of Japan twice as much in average internet speed.

check this out.
:O Australia is like RIGHT AT THE BACK .. and we are big internet consumers. ..
-_-
@ danacon
yes America has more ppl therefore it reguires more connections as compared to your less populated country. with more ppl downloading and streaming it demands more on the system slowing down the bandwith. America is the Third largest country im happy where we are in internet it will get better. compared to smaller nations of course they are gonna have better internet speeds.
WORD!
Americas the best =]
America is still the most technologically advanced country in the world by a longshot. The reason Japan and Europe have faster Internet is because they are so much more densely populated than we are.
Surely though, not meaning to be rude or anything but I swear that Japan is the one with all the gadgets?
(They’ve got more technologically advanced toilets!!)
I agree that America is technologically advanced but Japan seem to share their technology with the rest of the world, therefore being of greater use to society.
It’s got nothing to do with the population necessarily. Japan have a higher demand for fast Internet, (they use mobile Internet a lot more than UK or US) so I’m sorry to burst your bubble but America isn’t AS FAR ahead as you suspected…
Every product you use first assembles in China & Japan then reached at your side :) Even Company Nokia and other big mobile manufacturers and Apple him self assembles their product from china.
dude thats a lie i live in spain and i got 40 m/bs
These are the average speeds. Wich means some people have faster and some people have slower. For example, the average weight in america is 165 pounds. I weigh aproximatley 250 pounds. Not everyone wieghs 165 pounds.
where is india?buddy
Ha ha
In india u can get 64 Kbps …
64 Kbs What ? are you ok dude am from Pakistan and still we can get 10 MB connection with unlimited downloads and me my self using 4 MB Connection .![[music]](http://www.jamaipanese.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/music.jpg)
From what I know, Korea has much faster internet speed than Japan
This was in 2007.. Now korea has 100 mb per sec!!! http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/76454![[cry]](http://www.jamaipanese.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/cry.jpg)
I downloaded anyways
I tried to download this game in the U.S., which I downloaded in only 10 min. in Korea, it took me 10 hours.. It was hard to believe my eyes
mayb u had lower speed in us than korea .. but if u wanted more u would get ..
here i live in Egypt .. i have 1 MB DSL .. its download speed is 130 Kb/s .. that cost me 150 pounds ( egyptian pounds ) in a month .. i can pay higher than that .. so i can’t get a higher speed .. Egypt highest speed for home use is 21MB but cost like 2k a month ..
also we have 80 million people .. , oh and my speed isn’t limited i mean there is know such thing as bandwith as other countries i can download all i want the speed will stay the same and nothing would change .. but we also have limited package its cheaper .. like 1MB ( my speed ) limited would cost about 110 pound i think or less.. but u get like hmm how much was it ?? i think 7 GB .. 5 MB here would cost 555 pounds ..
so yep pay higher get a higher speed .. thats what its like here well we r still upgraded our tech few years back internet sucked here .. so we actually improved allot in few years and still going
In Japan we pay like 3,900 yen($40 USD) for insanly fast internet.
I lived in USA, JAPAN, and CANADA. I’m originally from Tokyo. I remember when i use to play Call of Duty MW2 in my apartment back in Los Angeles. I would have to go through the stress of turning off my MSN,AIM,Torrent Downloads, and other crap, just to play a game. Over here, those habits are stone age procedures.
Countries that have the fastest average internet speeds often have very urbanised populations with most people living in apartments. It is easy to run a cable in a multiresidential building which can supply Internet services to all households there. In countries like Canada, US and Australia where the population is more spread out and scattered, and people prefer to live in single-household dwellings, you’ll be a running a cable to serve maybe one household or a few. That is not economical for many governments.
I believe Romania, Bulgaria, Latvia and Lithuania also have very fast Internet services for their populations and these countries are hardly wealthy countries so a country need not be very rich to supply Internet broadband services. Political vision is needed.
i live in india ranchi.I think india is going good condition in web world.I would have to go through the stress of turning off my MSN,AIM,Torrent Downloads, and other crap, just to play a game. Over here, those habits are stone age procedures.
i think radio is better
University of Kamiyaar admission fall 2010 merit criterea 70% above in sex
there is 200mb/s internet in Portugal already and it’s 99,99 euros(139 dollars today) the pack with tv(100 channels and HD) and telephone(24 hours).
i forgot to post the link, here:
http://www.meo.pt/aderir/fibra/pacotes/Pages/tvnetvoz.aspx
But where is syia ???
I’ll say. In the UK, we only pay on average £15 a month for broadband and internet. That’s like around $20-25? And most of the time you add another £20 for TV and calls. But I don’t get how countries like Hungary are above us? That’s wrong! My fiancee is from Hungary, and the internet connection there take around 45 seconds to fully load a page. Here, it takes maximum 5 or 6 seconds, where usually it loads in less than or equal to a second.
My Dear you should accept what a statistics show about your speed rather than arguing.i think ur fiancee has a poor computer or does’nt know to access.plz fon’t mind!
Now Pakistan has launched 10 Mbps & listed in those few countries where relatively higher download speed being used by on average.Even We use better speed than India.Every Pakistani citizen or person living here now can access 10 mbps @ very resonable rates.

Kingdom of Jordan’s got now 21 mb per second internet speed~~ so yaay!!
indiaa kaahaaaan haiii bhaiii??????![[cry]](http://www.jamaipanese.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/cry.jpg)
I live in Central Georgia, USA. The Top speed we can get here which would be right across the street from central office is 6Mbps. That’s pitiful. We are thinking about moving (but still staying in town) and broadband connection is a major deciding factor. But if all we can get is 6Mbps what’s the point?
guys, just be happy of the fact that your country actually made it to the top 30 list. there are 200 over countries behind.
OOOOOOO!!!!!….. amazing Top 30 Countries With Fastest Internet !!!!!
Lithuania is among countries having the fastest Internet connection in the world according to the results of Speedtest.net and that is true, I needed max 5 min to download at least a 5gb file,but now I’m in the UK and having internet here, is like not having it at all :(
Where is India,,dude[shocked]
I myself use Tata Docomo’s 3G e-stick provides max. speed of up to 21.1 Mbps but I get around 8-15Mbps in day time and get almost the full speed while surfing at night….Please update the stats.
Romania should be there. Most of the people here has at least 10mbps internet speed! And the fastest speed is 120mbps from UPC and RCS&RDS.

8th. in theWorldJust!! Just another reason to never leave beautiful Canada… 30 up, 30 down, 30 a month… Fiber Rocks!!! After 3 months promo, it still comes in for just under 65 bucks a months…
This is not correct. Bulgaria is in top 3 !
Here in Finland it’s very common to have 100/10 mbps connection. Some ISP have launched even 1000/100 mbps connections for 99€ a month.
