How Pakistan compares globally
In our dataset of 31 countries, Pakistan ranks #31 of 31 for typical download speed — that's below the global median of 150 Mbps (roughly 83% lower). Broadband in Pakistan is still maturing. Many users rely on DSL or mobile/4G, and fibre is concentrated in major cities, so speeds vary a lot. Where fibre is available it dramatically outperforms DSL and mobile.
What affects internet speed in Pakistan
Your real speed depends far more on your setup than the national average: the connection type (wired vs Wi-Fi), your provider and plan, distance to the exchange, and peak-time congestion.

Frequently asked questions
What is a good internet speed in Pakistan?
A connection at or above the local typical of ~25 Mbps download is comfortable for streaming, video calls, and multiple devices. For heavy 4K streaming or large households, aim higher. Run a test to see where your connection lands.
How can I check my internet speed in Pakistan?
Use the free SpeedPulse speed test — it measures your download, upload, ping, and jitter in seconds, right in your browser, and shows your IP, ISP, and location.
Why is my speed lower than the Pakistan average?
Wi-Fi distance, older equipment, your specific plan, peak-time congestion, and how far you are from the test server all affect results. Testing over a wired connection usually gives the highest, most stable figure.
