If you’ve ever been to Japan or South Korea, you’ve probably been in awe of how fast the internet speeds are. Even the most complex page, like a Google Images search, loads immediately without waiting. But just how fast is this? Well, in the U.S., the typical bandwidth speed is around 8.4 Mbps. However, in South Korea and Japan, the average internet speed clocks in at an eyewatering 22 Mbps!
One provider, Google Fiber, aims to provide the fastest internet in the United States. Google Fiber offers average download speeds of 157.1 Mbps and an average advertised speed of up to 2000 Mbps.
That said, another part of Asia has managed to pip both Japan and South Korea to the post. In Taiwan, average download speeds of 135.88 Mbps have been reached! In fact, speeds of over 100 Mbps have been recorded in most parts of Asia.
Of course, the fastest possible internet would have to be located closest to the satellites that provide our internet - the International Space Station. You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now., the ISS is now home to an unbelievable 600 megabit per second internet speed! Before, the typical speed was just 300 Mbps - still incredibly fast!
This increased speed allows for prompt message transmission between the ISS and earth, which is important. Effective communication is imperative for NASA, so good internet speeds will always be a priority at the ISS.
