34230000000mbps (mili bits per second)(I love SI units) down and 17080000000mbps up

The reliability is horrendous. Pings vary from 200 to few thousand. Sometimes speeds drop below 1Mbps. Double CGNAT. I think my internet is provided by someone in their garage with 15y old equipement over the air.

950 mbit down / 120 mbit up. ยฃ70/month. Zen Internet, best ISP in the UK IMHO.

1000Mbps each direction. No caps. There's options for faster but it's almost unheard of that I can saturate the link as it is (and nearly all of my hope network doesn't go faster)

I got pretty lucky, there's actually 3 carriers in the area that I can choose from which is probably partly why the options are good. Although I'm paying I think $80/month. I should switch carriers again or try to cancel my current one to try to get a deal, I guess.

autistic complaining about improper use of SI and SI adjacent units , going into a bit of self parody at the end

please fucking capitalise units properly , the most valid interpretation of "mbps" is millibit picosecond which is invalid anyway (should be femtobit second or fb s) and also not a unit of any kind of speed , not that you are asking about speed but likely bandwidth , but also in this specific case , ignoring that you use this stupid per construct , leaving it to interpretation which letter is meant to be capitalised and which lower case leaves megabits per second (Mb s^(-1)) and megabytes per second (MB s^(-1)) (of course milibits per second and milibytes per second are also units of bandwidth) , and also because bits and bytes are involved , are you using the mega- prefix per SI or , I would argue incorrectly , per JEDEC (as in 1 KB = 1024 B ) , I don't know because you have shown a complete disregard for units and all they represent , for everyone who takes the time to understand , learn and properly use prefixes to convey a specific meaning , in a way that cannot be misinterpreted . You may not think this is important because "oh Lily you understood me anyway" and ? you have shown a complete disregard for all that anyone with a computer science degree should stand for , shown no intention to properly understand how the more and more computerised would around us works and for what ? so that your fingers can use a few less calories , putting of the heat death of the universe by an unimaginably irrelevant amount , which you will unknowingly spend anyway when you hear a bird sing across the road , is that really worth it to you ?
