Viasat in Brazil had a noteworthy median download speed of 62.07 Mbps, though still fell short of the country’s fixed broadband speed of 90.20 Mbps. No South American satellite provider surpassed its country’s fixed broadband download or upload speeds during Q1 2022. ![]() In fact, during May 2022, the Speedtest Global Index ™ found Chile had the second fastest fixed broadband internet in the world with a median download speed of 206.97 Mbps, just a hair shy of Singapore’s first place speed of 209.21 Mbps. ![]() Although Chilean fixed broadband internet was much faster for those who could get access to it. Our analysis of Speedtest Intelligence data found Starlink in Chile was the fastest satellite provider in South America with a median download speed of 110.49 Mbps during Q1 2022. ![]() Starlink in Chile was the fastest satellite provider in South America Spain was the only country to have its fixed broadband beat Starlink for fastest median download speed, achieving 131.99 Mbps to Starlink’s 108.43 Mbps within the country.įor upload, fixed broadband providers in Spain (100.65 Mbps), France (86.02 Mbps), Portugal (74.42 Mbps), and Lithuania (73.95 Mbps) all recorded median speeds greater than 70 Mbps, while the closest satellite provider, Starlink in Portugal, trailed at 32.05 Mbps.Īll satellite providers fell far behind fixed broadband providers in the whole of Europe for latency during Q1 2022, with Starlink in Spain and the United Kingdom recording the highest satellite latencies at 35 ms and 36 ms, respectively - a far cry from the lowest fixed broadband latency, which was 15 ms in the U.K. Starlink was fastest for download speed in Lithuania at 160.08 Mbps, followed by Belgium (147.85 Mbps), Slovakia (146.25 Mbps), Croatia (136.00 Mbps), and Austria (132.61 Mbps). In contrast, fixed broadband only achieved median download speeds over 100 Mbps in Spain, Portugal, and the Netherlands during Q1 2022. Speedtest Intelligence showed that Starlink blazed ahead in Europe during Q1 2022, with Starlink achieving a 100+ Mbps median download speed in every country where it was commercially available. Starlink in Lithuania was the fastest satellite provider in Europe Puerto Rico, new to our list, showed HughesNet had the fastest satellite internet on the island territory at 20.54 Mbps, though fixed broadband was much faster at 68.88 Mbps. Mexico’s fixed broadband download speed (40.07 Mbps) was much slower than Starlink, while Starlink download speeds were slower than fixed broadband for all providers combined in the U.S. Starlink in Mexico had the fastest satellite internet in North America during Q1 2022 with a median download speed of 105.91 Mbps, followed by Starlink in Canada (97.40 Mbps) and the U.S. Starlink in Mexico was the fastest satellite provider in North America For many Starlink users, we suspect these changes are negligible. and from 51 ms to 55 ms in Canada during the past year. Median latency on Starlink marginally increased from 40 ms to 43 ms in the U.S. (16.29 Mbps in Q1 2021 to 9.33 Mbps in Q1 2022) and at least 36% in Canada (16.69 Mbps to 10.70 Mbps) during the same time period. However, Speedtest Intelligence also showed that upload speeds for Starlink decreased at least 33% in the U.S. ![]() In Canada, Starlink’s download speed leapt ahead nearly 58% from 61.84 Mbps to 97.40 Mbps during the same time period. In the U.S., Starlink median download speeds improved roughly 38% from 65.72 Mbps in Q1 2021 to 90.55 Mbps in Q1 2022. and Canada, as did speeds for all fixed broadband providers combined. Speedtest Intelligence ® reveals that median download speeds for Starlink dramatically increased from Q1 2021 to Q1 2022 in the U.S. Starlink speeds increased nearly 58% in Canada and 38% in the U.S. We’re also examining how Starlink’s internet performance has changed over the past year in the United States and Canada. Today we’re updating our ongoing series on satellite internet performance with data from Q1 2022 in Europe, Oceania, North America, and South America, including results from 10 additional countries. It’s been a year since we first examined SpaceX’s Starlink satellite internet, which launched its public beta in November 2020.
