World’s lowest internet download speed is 13KBpsSeptember 26, 2011 - 16:59 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Based on 27 million downloads by 20 million computers in 224 countries from January through June 2011 content delivery service, Pando Networks made a study. According to Mashable, the service found that South Korea is top in the world in terms of download speed, averaging 17.62 Mbps. South Korea has a faster download speed than Great Britain, Turkey, Spain and Australia combined. Romania has the second fastest Internet speeds on the planet, clocking in at 15.27 Mbps, and a trio of Eastern European countries round out the top five, Bulgaria, Lithuania and Latvia. The United States is only 26th in the world with 4.93 Mbps while China, home to the world’s largest Internet population, manages a dismal 1.96 Mbps with 82nd place. The slowest Internet, according to the study, is in the Congo, with an average of just 13 Kbps, a speed that would make even a 1990s dial-up Internet user cringe. Most of the world’s slowest countries on Pando’s list are located in Africa, where broadband access is sparse and mobile is often the most prevalent point of access for users. According to Pando’s study, the average download speed in Armenia is 161Kbps. It’s 280 Kbps in Georgia, 490 Kbps in Turkey, 206 Kbps in Azerbaijan and 74 Kbps in Iran. The worldwide average download speed is 580Kbps. Related links: Top stories Yerevan will host the 2024 edition of the World Congress On Information Technology (WCIT).
