See 10 Countries with World’s Fastest Internet Speeds

Akamai Technologies, a cloud services provider, made a list of the fastest internet connection speeds in the world that shows where the luckiest netizens reside.

With a few clicks on a keyboard and a swipe of the mouse, we have access to an unprecedented amount of information the likes of which humanity has never seen before.

But if you have a slow internet connection speed, then waiting for that page to load, that video to buffer, or that file to download can feel like an eternity.

In terms of population, Nigeria is among the top five, but each of the under-listed countries is ranked by the average speed of their broadband internet connection in megabits per second (Mbps).
