  1. Henk- look at this article from us Indians’ perspective. In a place where 2-4 Mbps still run businesses, 50 Mbps is Utopia! 😛

    • guys, in Lithuania me and my friends have 100mb/s up/down and it cost 10Euro and you can 600mb/s for 20Euro and lowest option is 50mb/s and it cost 5euro, and that’s basic stuff you can get, probably you can get a lot higher if you know someone.

  2. I was pretty suprised that Lithuania was not mentioned in this list. In 2016 it had fastest public wifi https://blog.rottenwifi.com/top-20-countries-fastest-public-wifi-2016-infographic/ Also already in 2011 it had fastest internet in the world https://www.investlithuania.com/news/ict-news/internet-in-lithuania-is-fastest-in-the-world/ and was competing only with South Korea. It would be nice to know whether Lithuania was not mentioned only by mistake or everything is changing so so fast 🙂
