In July, we covered a study released by Pando Networks that outlined some striking disparities in the current quality of internet access and speed across the U.S. Among the study's more revealing findings was the size of the gap between those at the front of the pack in terms of connectivity speeds and those at the back -- a difference of tenfold. Interestingly, Rhode Island came in as the state with the fastest download speeds, compared to Idaho which brought up the rear with an average speed of 318KBps. Today, Pando Networks has released another study that reveals the speed and reliability not just of the U.S. but of the global landscape in an attempt to provide a comprehensive look at the accessibility of the world's data. Interestingly, the average global download speed is 580KBps, showing among other things that Idaho's speed pales in comparison to worldwide average. But what may come as a surprise to some is that the U.S. ranked in at 26th with an average speed of 616KBps, compared to South Korea, the world speed champion, which came in with a blinding average speed of 2,202KBps.
