Vivo had the best results in the survey in speed performance, with an average of 101 Mega – speed higher than the national average, which is 79 Mega.
The study evaluated millions of speed tests of home internet operators present throughout Brazil, carried out from January to December 2022, on the Melhor Escolha plan comparison platform. “With this data, it is possible to understand the internet scenario in the country. Thus, the consumer is able to compare the services provided, while the providers are careful to offer a better quality internet”, says Glauciana Nunes, head of Consumer Connection at the company.
