This is pretty good, but I can tell you for certain, that I do not actually experience this.
I'm sure my uni throttles the internet in some way.
Ultimately though, it doesn't really make much difference how fast it is, because it constantly goes out, I can't host anything whatsoever (no access to port-forwarding or firewall), I can't play online games on my Xbox (They have a type 2 NAT), and on my laptop I can hardly ever get a clear quality video-call home, despite my internet apparently being great here, and my parents also being decent on Fibre Optic.
Pie Crust:
I remember one day when my dad had to go to NY for some reason. He was facetiming us on his phone, in the subway on 4G and I had server lag on broadband, lol.
Anyways, I'm going to get 12mbps next week. :D

This is in Megabytes/second. It's worth noting that I can achieve 13 MBytes/s download speeds in steam quite easily and that I don't share this with anyone who does much more than watching YouTube. For example, in Doobles' case he probably has to share that connection with his entire University which is why he experiences lower speeds than the speedtest says he gets
