gollark: Yes, most of the infrastructure is ancient copper cables.
gollark: Gigabit Ethernet can consistently deliver 1Gbps basically regardless of conditions and is widely supported and various fibre optic standards can do 10Gbps or 40Gbps (much higher is ridiculously expensive).
gollark: Theoretically 802.11ax/WiFi 6 can do 3Gbps or something. Practically, you can't get all that throughput on one device, your devices are probably 802.11ac or 802.11n, and the wireless environment isn't going to be utterly perfect and free of noise.
gollark: 8.
gollark: 1Gbps is pretty common in saner countries.
