India has recorded a significant improvement in the global ranking for delivering the fastest median mobile speeds. According to the latest report by Ookla Speedtest Global Index, India jumped eight spots in the global ranking for median mobile speeds.
India recorded 18.26 Mbps median mobile download speeds in November, which is significantly better compared to October where it recorded a speed of 16.50 Mbps. The country jumped eight spots from 113 to 105 on the global ranking index for median mobile speeds in November.
However, India's ranking dipped globally for overall median fixed broadband speeds. India stood at 79th rank in speed for fixed broadband but fell to 80th spot in November. In the meantime, the fixed median download speeds of the country witnessed a slight increase from 48.78 in October to 49.09 Mbps in November.
The Speedtest Global Index report for November further reveals that Qatar is currently leading the ranking for global median mobile speeds with a recorded speed of 176.18Mbps. For the fixed broadband speed, Chile has recorded the highest internet speed with 216.46 Mbps speed, followed by China recording 214.58 Mbps internet speed. Chile also remains in top position, offering the fastest broadband speeds, while Palestine and Bhutan increased 14 spots in rank globally.
Notably, the mobile internet and broadband speed depends on the infrastructure or the type of cabling (copper or fiber-optic) spread across the country to support their internet service. India's spectrum in comparison to high ranking countries in the list is low and for the same reason, people record lower internet speed in India. For instance, when one of the members of India today tech visited South Korea, he recorded the 4G speed higher and somewhat similar to what the new 5G spectrum is offering in India.
