| Progress, don't stop now I think the 2 surveys are measuring different things OR reporting the same thing differently.
Instat is looking at BROADBAND speeds (ignoring dialup very low speed connection.
Akamai looks at ALL connections which drops the average quite a bit.
The rate of INCREASE is not the same as higher per media.
Cable HSI got a new big bump with D3 deployment, FTTH started higher but hasn't doubled (or more) it's speeds.
Remember this isn't highest available speed, but average speed tier that sells, ComCast automaticlly doubled most users speeds, and offers a 8.5 times faster connection to many (6/1>>>50/10) which could greatly skew the results Depending on who/how/ how many, connections/consumers were polled. |
