How are you guys getting such fast internet speed? The fastest speed that was offered to me was 20mbps and I'm forced to buy the triple package which amounts up to $108's with tv and phone line.

I was stuck with DSL(capped out at 18Mpbs for the highest tier package, which was $80/mo) until last summer, when AT&T rolled out fiber in my semi-rural area for some reason

ISPs fastlane speedtest to artificially boost your reported numbers in some places.

Use fast.com
It's run by Netfix and runs through their servers, which ISPs won't fastlane because it would open up all of Netflix to faster throughput. They created the site specifically to force more accurate readings.

I'm guessing they aren't American.

The lowest package I could get is 50Mb right now.

To those of you in the US getting upwards of 100 Mbps: how much are you paying for Internet per month?

I'm paying something like $155/month + fees and taxes with Xfinity. It comes with phone/cable/Internet.

Frankly I think the price is excessive, but it is what it is.

Yeah, Verizon FIOS in the US is 1 gbps up and down and it's only $60-$70 depending on the area and the competition available. I fucking love it. Especially the upload.

The cable companies made it extremely hard for Verizon to expand. That's why it's only in certain markets with steep cutoffs that never got further developed.

The cable companies have now expanded themselves and pretty much all offer 1 gbps up/down and Comcast even has 2 gbps up/down, but outside ATT and Verizon, shit is still pretty expensive, though it should come down hard in the next year. We should all have 1 gbps up/down in a few years and cheap ass prices.

I get about 115-120 Mbps. I pay $150 after fees and taxes, but that includes a decent cable package.

I'd estimate my Internet would be around $60-$80 without the cable.

Yeah, evidently I COULD have them survey my house, but then I'd need to get permission from the landlord for them to do work on the building and that's just too much hassle I expect they won't want to do just for me, when several other people rent out their own place here and won't want it.
