500MB  Wow, that's a lot.
|
|
|
|
|
500 Mb not MB, sorry habit of writing MB more often.

Town of 8000, 100km from Sydney CBD. Nominal 50Mbps, measured 35-45. About 300m of copper to the fibre node. Bundled with landline phone, $A70/mo, about USD50 at the going rate.
[edit] And a monthly "limit" of 1TB. That's well over 250 hours of HD streaming. I don't even get close. [/edit]

60Mb down about 5 up
Small city (aprox 8000 people)
Copper wire (even tho they say it's fiber ...) to the node and then fiber
no download limit (yes those still exist over here)
About 60us$ a month
I can get a better deal but still have to look into it.

In Netherlands I live in a city I have ADSL which is around 2.5 MBps download and 300 KBps upload (Big B = Byte, not bit, multiply by 8 for bits). Unfortunately, for Netherlands the ISP does not matter, it is the government who owns the line (ISP only rent it), so no alternative. The price is around €30.
In my parents place in a small village in Bulgaria we have coaxial cable above ground. I get 4-10 MBps download and 1-8 MBps upload (no hard limits, depends on the usage, but usually it is above average). The network is really prone to breaking due to thunderstorms, but it is super fast. The price is 32лв. (~€16) and includes cable TV.
It is amazing what lack of regulations can do for the internet (if you do not care there are cables everywhere outside).

I live in The Netherlands too. Having cable internet 200/20 for 40 euro a month
In Word you can only store 2 bytes. That is why I use Writer.

About $6/month for a 50mbps fiber connection, In suburban New Delhi.

France, countryside, 8-10Mbps ADSL, 39€/month (but it is triple-play, so with TV, phone, and reductions on mobiles, etc...). Fiber is around 60 to 70€ for 100Mbps, but still not deployed in the countryside.

VDSL2 50 MBit/s up, 10 MBit/s down, no limit
at 45,00 € including phone (free calls within Germany), .DE domain, extended email services
100 / 40 MBit/s would be 10,00 € more
Small town (pop. 10k)
Fibre is on planning stage here. Expected costs are about 50,00 € for the lowest speed which might be 100 or 250 MBit/s then.

200 MB download / 20 MB upload + TV (combi package) is €63,50 where I live in the Netherlands.
We do have a choice though, for example, KPN has roughly the same price for half those MB's.

I pay British Telecom £10 a month to rent the line even though I don't use it for phone calls
I pay Sky £20 a month to provide broadband
Then Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey and google decide what content I can see for free.

$40/month for 16mb (but I only get a bit less than 5mb because of crappy Telekom lines which they will fix Real Soon Now. It has been Real Soon Now since May of '17).

Funny, I always thought you were based in the US.
Sounds seriously overpriced.

Well, it also comes with three IP phone numbers and probably a bunch of streaming stuff (which doesn't at 5meg, and online storage which I don't use, and maybe an email address or two which I also don't use.)
(I'm a US person working for the US Army here, soon to be retired and then living in Romania.)

SGD $39 (about USD $29) for 1 Mbit with a phone line thrown in
no volume caps or other crap, but some local 'filtering' easily bypassed with a VPN.
This internet thing is amazing! Letting people use it: worst idea ever!

I live in the boonies of upper-state NY. The only provider in my area is Mid-Hudson Cable. Check out their outrageous prices: Pricing | Mid-Hudson Cable
The base rate I pay is $75/mo, not including fees, taxes, etc., that they hit you up with, so it comes out to almost $100/mo.

I find the difference in speed vs pricing very odd.
I can choose between 1, 10, 100, 250 and 1000Mb/s, with the difference in price similar to your 100, 125, 150, 175 and 200 Mb/s.
I have to say I'm glad that we have a law over here that states that the final price (including taxes and fees) must always be stated.

It doesn't seem too bad. We live in the the foothills of the Sierra's in California and we pay $125 for 15MB down 2MB up and that's when it works at full speed most of the time it's slower.

30-75 Mbps, $20/Month. @ Chennai, India.

Nearly the same conditions. 20€ but 20 Mb/s and telephony.
Tip: when it comes to saving some money tweaking small things only helps little, savings will be done be the expensive things like buying a smaller car or moving to cheaper house/flat. And alway compare at least 3 offers when signing a contract and ask friends for experiences.
Press F1 for help or google it.
