Methodology

Country-level annual aggregates are read from the reporting database and combined using their available sample counts. Rankings require at least 20 tests. Synthetic estimates are excluded before weighting or ranking. The year-over-year download comparison is 249.2% higher than 2024 and is shown only because both annual records exist.

Limitations

  • Country samples have different sizes and are not population weighted.
  • Test users and devices are self-selected rather than a representative household panel.
  • IP geolocation and network attribution can be imperfect.
  • A national aggregate does not predict service at a particular address.
