Ookla, the company behind the popular ISP speed measurement tool, SpeedTest has introduced a broadband index that assimilates data from the over 1 million internet speed measurement tests conducted around the world to round in on the city with the fastest internet speed. As in any test, this may only be indicative since the company’s results for USA has differed widely with a similar ranking provided by Akamai earlier this year.

A surprising list for sure, you would think it to be dominated by the richer nations of the world that would presumably have more money to spend on net infrastructure.
