this guy is a morron at explaining, he jumps around in terminology like "wifi" and LTE and cobber cables and fiber as a thing that is the same.... and just call it internet...
most of denmark are covered in fibernet or cabel or ADSL internet... most fiber and cabel providers offers 1 GBit speed up and down .
denmark is neighbour to germany, so we have much the same infrastructure..
another thing he forgets to mention is that , in places without fiber, often there will be 4G or 5G mobile data and cell coverage with speeds that surpases ADSL
24:30
It does make sense though. He doesnt google for score but just the location and the team and football. On a US profile it would make sense to then show the live score if there is a match on, but on a German profile it then makes more sense to show a wiki profile. So yeah if he had put in score with his search he would have seen it.
Same is for the american profile in germany, looking for FC Bayern München to show wiki and a german profile aa live score....
in the netherlands we have fast internet everywhere
Faster than France?

Depends how much you want to pay for it.
If you don't play on-line games, you don't need high speed.
At my address up to 8Gb/s on fibre.
But I don't need that much, so I took the cheap 100Mb/s option. UP AND DOWN LOAD
Nouja, overal, er zijn een aantal grensdorpjes waar je beter het Duitse net kunt pakken.
Je hebt in Nederland eigenlijk altijd wel mobiel bereik, maar er zijn nog wel wat plekken in het buitengebied waar het niet bijzonder vlot is.😅
The guy in the video mix everything. Wifi and walls size have nothing to do with internet connection speed offer. When we talk about someone's connection, it's the connection available on the router. If behind the router you use a bad wifi, it doesn't mean your connection is bad.
BTW, 135Mb/s average in germany is really low.
The video is from 2021. Now in 2024, on speedtest, germany average is only 90Mb/s down and 32 Mb/s up ! Damn it's worse than in 2021 !
Just for comparison, in france i got a 2GB/s down and 1GB/s up for 50 euros/month, including advanced IPTV services.
the reason for the lower speeds in 2024 is thhat most ppl use internet from theire mobile phones and 4G/5G network
@@Darkenforcer that shouldn't change the average speed 🤔
@@Darkenforcer Statisitics on speedtest are in two separate sheets, 1 for mobile and 1 for home connection.
The USA officially has the ending .us as a top-level-domain, but does'nt use it (or only very rarely). Why should they, after all, the USA is something special and the only country in the world ....
They missed a trick though the one that earns the most is Tuvalu with .tv
...well USA did not invent what we today call internet (World Wide Web). They invented the precursor, ARPANET. This wasn't worldwide. Modern day internet was developed at CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) near Geneva, Switzerland. The brit Tim Berners-Lee there developed the standards HTTP and HTML. US developed a lot of the necessary network standards. Where should any top domain be? In the USA or in Switzerland?
Ps this an old clip! Things has approved a lot. So sorry Charlie.
Well post mail and fax are legally secure, email is not.
900 up and down Isle of Wight UK. With phone, international calls, TV, static IP address. £60 per month.
470down 200up. But wifi is not great here.. with cable it will be better.
500down/100up for me in germany in a rural
fibre !. pure luck
This video is not completely correct because Europe is one of the highest rankings in terms of internet. Here in Belgium we have fiber, cable and ADSL internet. Fax machines have been in the museum for a very long time. Outside the cities or in the cities the speed is almost the same. The average speed that I have is an average download speed of 100 Mbps and upload of 30 Mbps. I have internet by cable on my pc.
surprised denmark rank no.8 . my connection is currently 330/70 for under $45 . " just speed tested it "
me in the dark jylland in the middle of nowhere... 1GBit up/down 369 dkr
@@Darkenforcer hehe samme her. er bare ikke på fiber så det her var det billigste
"the wifi is very slow" the difference between german brick/ concrete and US paper walls 😂 Dare to punch a german wall, you gonna end up in the hospitle with a broken hand 😂 When you know what german/ europeen walls are made of just the thought of throwing a punch at one sounds increadibly stupid, no chance that can go well no matter how well you think you´re trained/ prepared 🤣 I just had to drill two holes because mice chewed through the power connection to my room for a new power line, needed to buy a 40cm/ 16inch drillbit (and I got walls on the thiner side for Germany) and thankfully my cordless drill was strong enough on hammer to make it through. In the US you only need a pressure cattle killer with long extention to punch through a wall while in Europe you would barely make a dent into the wall with that. Punching out a lock like in the movie? Well, even in the US it doesn´t excactly work like that you punch out the entire knob and brake the frame somewhat but in Europe? Again you´re probably going to the hospitle since it didn´t work and the recoil hurt you badly 😂
Im from the Netherlands and had fiber in all places i lived here, i get 800 down and about 600 up, i use mesh wifi network within my home (3 access points).
most of the Netherlands is covered with Fiber , after looking it up its 7 million households have Fiber.
But i dont agree with speednet averages because it all has to do with how good people have set up their Wifi in house, that doesnt mean that the providers are slow.
You have walls out woud. And have concert walls. Bildt like LEGO. In the Netherlands. And the WIFI is super good. I have 15 years glasfiber internet.
i recently down graded my internet to 150 down 10 up, from 300 down 10 up, they are now badgering me to buy gigabite speeds 1g up and 1g down, but i dont need it and now they mess with my speed to try convince me hahaha.
One thing the speedtest rankings don't show is available speed. It's just speed measurements by their service. Which can even be lower depending on congestion. I currently have 200Mbps fiber, which is generally properly measured by speedtest. But I can get 8Gbps internet if I want. At almost double the price. I had 50Mbps (before a free upgrade), which I had no problems with.
The plusses and minuses likely indicate up or down from previous rankings.
Germany has seriously many places with very slow to no connection. And yes, I worked for a German transport company for 6 years so I know what kind of drama is the internet there ... and then I am not even talking about the buraucration. Intermediate walls in the Netherlands are gas -concrete blocks, I am not sure in Germany, I think stones but certainly not waek drywalls in Europe like in the USA
I am slightly east of you, @ItsCharlieVest, and my line is a Comcast 1200Mbs.
Anyway, not impressed with the guy in the video's knowledge and way of explaining things.
Quick sidenote: Passport two is actually applying for german citizenship
It’s the same in rural areas in the UK but now fibre is now available for all us. I haven’t saw a fax machine in years but my internet wasn’t that slow before we got fast fibre optic now. Mu husband works from home for years and he works for the top Telecommunications companies and we get it free. Where I live we had our house built and the walls are nearly 10inches thick.
had to check what speed I have to my apartment now that I watched the video. 279 Mbit/s download and 279 Mbit/s upload here in Sweden but that's what I pay for. there are those that have over 1000 Mbit/s, but it also costs.
France, with my actual provider and fiber connexion 990 Mbs down / 350 Mbs up for 35€ so around $40/mo.
We're talking about megabits, not megabytes like Charlie. 100 MB is way more than most people, basically 800 Mbs. So, @ItsCharlieVest do you confirm you had 100 MB up and not Mbs ?
WhatsApp is an app for forming groups, sending pictures and videos as well as video conversations or voice recording.
However, it has lost popularity as it was/been monitored by CSI (both in the country and abroad) in the news and rumors.
The German state is paying for the expansion of the internet network across the country for areas where it is less than 100mbs (I'm not entirely sure about the number, it could be more) as well as digitization is mandatory for the lower-ranking countries in the next few years
The way murican suburbs are designed makes it already impossible to maintain the infrastructure.
Lets pretend they want to get fibre optic cable in such a neighbourhood, how many more miles of cable would you need
to get all those cardboard boxes that they call houses connected, because of zoning regulations they are effing
far apart and far from the road.
But at least you have freedumb.
Sry for your internet. I just canceled my german 1000/50 cable internet+phone, because 45€/month was too expensive for me. Now I pay 29€ for 100/50 and I'm very satisfied. (big city)
This is the most interesting subject you have presented. It is surprising that as a provider, you didn't know much about this stuff.
This episode is mostly about the technical aspect. As important is the commercial/political aspect. The US companies keep Americans in an inferior position through their cable cartel. If you are in one sector, you have one "choice". Go a few streets away and it is another company. They don't need to improve service.
I don't know about the system in Germany, but in France there are three, or four, major cable/telephone companies. They are required to give nationwide service and thus, prices are much lower than in the US. Check the prices yourself. Then, for years the French government has been pushing/requiring companies to install fiber and the result is that almost all the country in on fiber.
It surprises me that Germany is almost as crappy as the US.
How much do you pay per month for you phone? I bet that my phone is less than yours and probably by half. The same goes for cable. I could give an example of the lowest phone subscription, but you wouldn't take me seriously.
with how their powergrid looks like, i'm not surprised tehy are behind in internet speeds.
i don't knoiw about germans, but here in france, the ones that are concrete or bricks are only the loadbearing ones in new homes. the others is a different story. Recently, you can have the home pre cabled for ethernet connexion in the rooms. that way, the walls aren't much a problem in those cases.
My father had ethernet cables put down in a home that was already built and he loves the change in speed and stability. fiber is quite commun except in far rural areas. and we have true fiber in the cities (if you have the equipment on the receving end of course). best of al is that there's no data usage limits on broadband and fiber here.
The average here in the Netherlands is 188 (ranked 7th) and if you want you can get up to 1000, depending on what you want to pay, but not many people need that high-speed . I was surprises that Germany is that slow in general, and that Iceland is the ‘winnen’ when it comes to ranking.
Me, from the future: So you started this upload about a month ago and can read this reaction in about 2 weeks...lol
All fiber here (Netherlands) and a second provider got theirs in the ground ready. 1 gig. upload/download with option for 2 gig. oops
I believe it's now mandatory for rural areas also.
netherlands: 1gb dl and 500mb to 1gb upload fiber connection
Fun shirt... And yeah, Internet in Indiana just depends on where you're at. In Fort Wayne where I live it's great, but Columbia City where I work is hit or miss.
I live 2 km outside of a village of about 3000 people in the east of The Netherlands. We did have a FTTH project in 2018 for which you could apply, and I choose to pay of the extra cost as a one time sum (EUR 1300), instead of a montly add-on to the regular fees. Basic speed up/down is 350 MBit/s, incl. 2 TV receivers for about EUR 60/m. If you want, you can get 8000 MBit/s from my current provider.
My family in Germany, just a stone trow away from the village edge, struggeled to get some decent internet speed for a long time.
WhatsApp is all of these together in one app! I cant think of a live without whatsapp. Massaging, Video call, voice massages, sending pictures etc.
Much more comfortable then the us communication
Moving everybody to voice over Internet means the whole uk pretty much had fibre to the house. Weird effect almost everything turned into a phone, my tablet, my PC and my Alexa echo show.
Reminder :
1 byte (b) = 8 bit (B)
network and internet speeds are always expressed in Mb/s (Megabit per second), not in MB/s (MegaByte per second).
UK websites are .co.uk not just .uk. Yes, that stuff about accepting cookies is very annoying and puts me off using new websites.
Our interior is not always made up by dry wall but brick. It seems our dwellings are more sturdier and we even do not build for tornado protection.
any one doing business on the internet in the uk prob has whatsapp.
Download 219Mbps and upload 60mbps (wireless), wired is double in my house.
.tv is a TLD can be used for television companies, and the same can be used as ccTLD for Tuvalu.
Your speed isn't measured in megabytes/s, it's in megabits/s. Mb, not MB. One byte is 8 bits.
In Belgium, I have 1GB download and 400 MB upload... pretty fast :-)
Bits not bytes. 15 megabytes is great! 100 is allmost 1 gigabit/s
I got 500 up and 500 down
there is .us tld's
You have no idea about megabits and megabytes. Hint: 1 megabyte is 8 megabits and internet speed is expressed in megabits per second. Your internet speed, of what you call 100 megabytes, is is actually 12.5 megabytes per second (MBps).
And in more detail, with most such lines, an encoding of 10-to-8 is used, to 1000 Mbps will yield roughly 800Mbps raw speed.
In Brussels Belgium ,I ve Fiber connection, almost everywhere in the country yet
almost
I have 1gbit / 1gbit internet speed. fiber
