This number isn't very useful for the purpose a lot of people here use it for, ,to determine the quality of broadband in a given country.

I'm using Singapore as an example, where 1 Gb/s fibre is available to almost every household (the government ensured that two fibre pairs were installed to each household, and the resident can buy any service they want from different ISP's).

The number shown, at less than 100 Mb/s must mix in tests over mobile as well, which begs the question as to how useful it is.
