Average Internet speed in Europe

29 comments
  1. As always, this is not average Internet speed, but the average speed of people using this speed testing website. Actual averages are likely lower than the averages of people testing their connection speed.

  2. I ehm… propose we expand internet providers in the Benelux to provide in all three countries. For ehm… you know, more cooperation and integration and such.

  3. I imagine most Swedes use Bredbandskollen instead of Ookla. At least that’s how it used to be. Speedtest used to have a pretty poor set of servers for us.

  4. Here in finland a lot of the consumer network equipment are mobile 4G. Our ground cabling requirements are quite strict, which makes installation slow and expensive to sparsely populated areas, and also older buildings. Certain providers don’t even offer DSL anymore, so the only option most of the countryside has is mobile.

    You don’t have to move far from helsinki center to only have ADSL or mobile available to you. Most reliable fiber development is in newly built areas, since older areas are often more reluctant to invest into the work because of the high cost.

  5. I have always wondered how is it possible that we have such low average speed, when it’s actually the lowest internet speed you can get in my country, even for rural areas. I don’t know a single person who has internet that slow. Something is very wrong with these numbers.

  6. Only 137 for Sweden? I thought I was low at 500..😅 Well there are alot of places where development drags on so it puöös the average down I guess.

  7. Prices in Romania:

    – villages can get 50 mbps to 300 mbps at 3 euro (alot of villages in my area got recently the 300 mbps upgrade) ;

    – small cities can get the 500 mbps at 6 euro or 1gbps at 8 euro;

    – in big cities u now can get the 2.5 gbps at 9 euro or 10 gbps at 10 euro.

    (VAT included)

  8. This is a lie. I just recently saw that Croatia has something close to 100mbps and its impossible that such a big change happened in 20 months. Fake info or 5 years old info.

  9. I live in Romania. My internet is faster than my wifi. If I do the speed test, I get the speed of my wifi… Everybody has 1GB speed it’s kinda standard. Some started to upgrade to 10GB. Cmon westerns, invest in tech! 😀
