2.3MB included along with gas, electric and water bills in my weekly £46 rent. I love being a student :P

I can connect to 7 different wireless networks where I live and each has a 2mbps connection to the internet. With my 3 network interfaces I can sustain around 5-6mbps although some services will not work correctly using this configuration. Basicly, with file downloads it's around 5-6mbps, for games 2mbps.

Oh and if you were wondering, these are legitimate connections within the building, I'm not jacking some random wireless.

Wow and I thought we were in late in France... I have a 24 Mb connection (3Mo/s DL and 1Mo/s UL max, illimited), about 50 channels on TV, and free illimited phone (towards France, USA and few other countries, number expanding, except towards cellphones), for 30 € a month. This in a medium town (Nancy).

I've got 4095 MB available download a day (or week or month, hell, I don't do piracy anyway), and 1023 upload. I don't know how quick this thing is, though it's definitely quicker than DSL. The best part is, I get it for free from my Uni.

Upto 8Mbps Download, 256Kbps Upload, with a 50GB a month cap but is unlimted after midnight to 8am, all for £25.99 or €37.90/$45.97.

The really shity thing is my phone exchange only suports 2Mbps Download at the moment, wich means i usally DL at about 260k.

There are cheaper isp that offer a simlar deal in the uk, but none give me the gameing perfomance of my exsisting isp to uk/euro Gaming servers, and i cannot get cable in my assend of kent home, wich means i dont get any cool digtal tv & broadband deals damit, so that means i got to pay another £48 a month for my bloody digtal tv service.

Got a bit off topic there :roll:
