Our internet was slow because most of it including the 56k was routed over a thing called soviet line radio wires. See these wires atop the commieblocks with the post? Some here and elsewhere believe they were used for power transmission, they weren't, they were used for radio points basically a dedicated plug for a radio with 3 channels. After the fall of the soviet union they were repurposed for telecommunications and internet, they are still up to this day due to regulations and some legacy systems still using them for data transmission. About mid 2000's there has been a massive push for fiber optics in every commieblock so the internet speeds doubled or trippled every few years or months. I personally don't even use wired anymore because my phone 5G wifi hotspot pulls 30mb/s no problem, mad from the days of fucking 16kb/s downloads.
