The band is wide but the connection is slow

Only 6% of the Brazilian internet users have connection speed up to 8 Mbytes, according to the research published by Nielsen Institute taking in account nine countries.

To compare the results, this speed is found in 38% of access point in Switzerland - 29% of internet sites in the United States - 27% of German computers with web access. The country that comes closest to Brazil in this category is Italy - only 7% of internet access point keeps the ultra-fast connection.

This shows how much we have to improve, not only the speed, but the number of Brazilians with internet. Perhaps with the investment plan by the government called National Broadband Plan, a big effort to be done in several spheres including us as customers.
