Top 10 fastest and slowest Internet speed in the world




The internet phenomenon, the ups and downs.
The internet was made available to the world in the late 80s through dial up connections which was able to reach maximum speed of 56 kilobytes. A broadband connection now is easily able to reach a minimum speed of about 700 kilobytes per second quite easily.
There are different ways to connect to the internet, fiber optic cables are a popular choice and are now the fastest way access the internet. The electrical signals are converted to light and are transported through optical cables. Ordinary cables are still used in the back of the modern day modems; these use coaxial lines to connect to the internet.
