   This is a sortable list of broadband internet connection speed by country, ranked by Speedtest.net data for March 2024, [1] and with M-Lab data for June 2023 [2] Country/Territory Median

4. Measuring network throughput - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measuring_network_throughput

   Bandwidth test software is used to determine the maximum bandwidth of a network or internet connection. It is typically undertaken by attempting to download or upload the maximum amount of data in a certain period of time, or a certain amount of data in the minimum amount of time.

5. List of interface bit rates - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_interface_bit_rates

   Another factor reducing throughput is deliberate policy decisions made by Internet service providers that are made for contractual, risk management, aggregation saturation, or marketing reasons. Examples are rate limiting, bandwidth throttling, and the assignment of IP addresses to groups. These practices tend to minimize the throughput ...

6. Data-rate units - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data-rate_units

   The ISQ symbols for the bit and byte are bit and B, respectively.In the context of data-rate units, one byte consists of 8 bits, and is synonymous with the unit octet.The abbreviation bps is often used to mean bit/s, so that when a 1 Mbps connection is advertised, it usually means that the maximum achievable bandwidth is 1 Mbit/s (one million bits per second), which is 0.125 MB/s (megabyte per ...

7. Bandwidth (computing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_(computing)

   The consumed bandwidth in bit/s, corresponds to achieved throughput or goodput, i.e., the average rate of successful data transfer through a communication path.The consumed bandwidth can be affected by technologies such as bandwidth shaping, bandwidth management, bandwidth throttling, bandwidth cap, bandwidth allocation (for example bandwidth allocation protocol and dynamic bandwidth ...

8. Bandwidth throttling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_throttling

   Bandwidth throttling is also used as a measurement of data rate on Internet speed test websites. Throttling can be used to actively limit a user's upload and download rates on programs such as video streaming , BitTorrent protocols and other file sharing applications, as well as even out the usage of the total bandwidth supplied across all ...
