    Damn! Would love to see how it performs with downloads, uploads, how it streams 4k content and gaming online! Can you do all these tests? Awesome content. I just subbed!

      watching 4K content work very well but gaming is bad as it has too much latency

      Probably no dishonesty involved.
      Key to note:
      Mbps vs. MBps:
      - Mbps (megabits per second) is the standard unit ISPs use to advertise internet speeds.
      - MBps (megabytes per second) is often used to measure download speeds in browsers and applications.
      You are most likely buying 5Mbps. Mbps(megabits per second) is not the same as MBps (megabytes per second). Your ISP is most likely advertising and selling you the former (Mbps). One Mbps (megabits per second) is equal to ⅛ megabytes per second (MBps).
      Your download is most likely measured in kilobytes/megabytes. So, if you're paying for 5Mbps, that is equivalent to 0.625 MBps or 625 KBps, so assuming you were unaware of this nomenclature, and you meant to write you are gettting 500KBps of downloadg, that sounds about right for your subscribed speed. This speed is on the lower end but okay for a single-person household for social media, general browsing, and HD content streaming.
      For speeds shown in the video, look closely and you will see they were reported in Mbps, so the ~90Mbps means he's getting around 11MBps download speeds. That means a 110MB file will take about 10 seconds to download.
      So, using Safaricom packages, for example, if you want to get a speed of 1.2MBps download, you'll have to subscribe to their 10Mbps package.

      You are right on that the upload speed isn’t the best but it’s good enough for most cases
