Internet service providers have to be rigging the whole speed test thing.

Internet offerings keep getting more expensive with wilder and wilder claims of achieved speeds. But I notice in practice all of it has to be fake as I experience significant delays in basic tasks despite high speed test and low latency results.

It's all fake!

it's rigged, you are hella stupid
ISPs have tagged the IP address of speed tests, and always allow the full connection to that site, so your tests will always come up nice and fast.

try this one, it gives me half the speed of other tests, perhaps not yet tagged by most ISP's

you click a link and it takes 30 sequentially delivered javascript transmissions with tens of ms delays to actually load the webpage. your connection speed is truly that fast. it's just that websites are fucking retarded.

I've been convinced for like the past 10 years that ISPs give you a temporary speed boost as soon as you access a speed test. This has happened on maybe a weekly basis for over a decade
>internet gradually gets slower and slower, videos buffering even at low resolutions
>go to speed test
>fast as fuck
>all videos load super fast even at 1080p
It's oddly consistent, every time my internet is unbearably slow I just run a speed test and it's all better.

I have a lot of issues sharing screen on teams, people bitch to me all the time that it's not loading, or extremely slowly and freezing.

The big name speed tests put my speed arounfd 450 down, 500 up

some other tests I just tried dont nearly achieve half of those values

it seems all rigged and fake

Your speed will only be as fast as the server you're receiving from. Especially noticeable in web browsing when you have a high speed package.
It's kind of like plumbing - The city's water in your neighborhood might be perfect, but if your building has old pipes, it's shit quality by the time it pours out of your faucet.

If you want to really test your speeds, torrent something that has a ton of seeders and you'll see the real cap.

fast.com (netflix) and speedtest have ISP servers all over the world in a few hops of your location so they can trick you into thinking you'll get good speeds/peering to other services like youtube/twitch/steam other crap

Your internet speed doesn't matter that much if the server you want to connect with is slow, i.e. either throttling to limit bandwidth or tracking shit slowing the connection down.
I get constantly full speed when I download but YT still loads as fast with my 200mbps connection as with my old 32mbps one.

yeah I bet OP is just an americunt, they literally have third world tier internet there.
we get 1+ gigabit fiber for 20โ‚ฌ/month and our mobile data packages are 150-200 gb for 6โ‚ฌ a month here in yuroope.
and it keeps getting cheaper and cheaper, that's what happens when you have competition and the whole market isn't completely owned by 2/3 massive shitty corporations (at&t, t-mobile, verizon).

Yes, and IIRC that one benchmarked at "only" 15-20gbit per port so its not actually the full 25gbit on all ports. And also the 25gbit sfp28 modules + pcie card still cost like 100-200 per port on each machine.
