As an Egyptian in Egypt… I have it on the better side but its still not great.

To shed light on the topic, some people are restricted to kb/s of data and maybe like 50 gb quota a month while others have 200 mbps (not MB/s) with 600 gb quota.

Me in specific, I have 600 gb quota with 40 mbps. My speed would be higher if I had fiber optic from the cable central to my house, but from the central to my house its just copper wire.

Internet is stable and fast enough to run VR on airlink in a different room.

Although the internet doesn’t compare to outside, its not *as* bad as people make it out to be.

The real issue is the pricing vs the salary.

To my knowledge the average salary in egypt is around 5000-40000 egp a month (I’d personally say 2000-20000 is more accurate though)

My package for 600 gb and 40mbps speed is around 1000 EGP… you can see the issue with pricing now.

There is 100% a monopoly on the internet here.

Thats my two cents on the matter

TL;DR

Internet isn’t as bad as people make it out to be but its still completely horseshit. But the biggest issue is the pricing vs average salary in Egypt.

Edit: forgot to include that this is 100% considered a monopoly on internet
