    Last I checked you could get 10 Gbit for around 12€

    then it would be €1200 for a TB (assuming the price goes up linearly), so not cheaper than starlink

      10 Gbit as in speed, not data cap. In Europe (at least in most places afaik) we don’t have data caps on fiber.
      So no, not even close.

        Then you should write Gbit/s or Gbps, not just Gbit

        Also I live in Europe and my internet is capped at 50 GB and the max speed is 30 Mbps, so 10 Gbps is baffling to me.

        • Also in Europe (Germany). A cap to home Internet is kinda crazy to me. I don’t measure my usage, but when I did, I usually used about 2-3tb per month.

          I have 1gbps down/300mbps up for 50€. Price is shit compared to other parts of Europe, but I can live with it.

            are we talking about a whole household or just you?

            • Just me. Since I took that measurement, I changed my habits. I download fewer games, I stream a lot more stuff locally, but I also added a server to my network that does a lot of stuff, including relatively high bitrate video streaming to ten users, so it’s probably even more these days.

      I think you’re misreading that as “10 GB of data,” when it’s actually download speeds of 10Gb/s. I looked it up, and there doesn’t seem to be a data cap.

      So it’s quite a bit cheaper than Starlink.
