The St Vincent and Grenadines is right up there, do you know if the CARCIP project of the World Bank undersea cable has anything to do with this? If not, then when CARCIP is finished St Vincent may indeed be moved to the top of the class?

If the global average is 18.32mbps and the regional bloc averages are roughly in the 20s but the highest countries waver around 60, 70,80 mbps, it appears to me that there are vast differences among the individual countries within the very regional blocks themselves. The large gap between their average and their highest seems to imply this, same too as the Caribbean chart shows above, But is this really so?

This is an interesting report and pleased it will be added to the ICTPulse listing for future tracking. What affects internet speeds across the different countries? What also can be done to improve speeds and by extension the rankings?
