Average Internet Speed in Bolivia

Internet in Bolivia: what the data shows

At a median 15.3 Mbps download, Bolivia sits near the back of the field: #90 of 119 ranked countries, well under half the global median of 33.9 Mbps. The world's fastest median belongs to the United States at 144 Mbps, more than 9× the speed measured here.

The median upload is 10.9 Mbps, about 71% of the download rate: the balance typical of a market mixing fibre with cable or DSL plans. Median latency is 91 ms. That is on the high side: pages and video still load, but calls, gaming and screen sharing carry a visible delay.

The fastest measured provider, Comteco at 20 Mbps, sits close to the national median: providers cluster tightly here, so the plan tier you buy matters more than which network you pick.

Desktops test faster than phones here (43 vs 11 Mbps): home Wi-Fi and wired links outrun the mobile networks that carry 72% of tests. By operating system, Windows devices record the quickest median (42 Mbps) while Android sits at 10 Mbps, usually a proxy for the networks and hardware each platform rides on rather than the software itself.

Tests from Bolivia most often reached the Lima test server (48% of the top-server mix), so the figures reflect the routes everyday traffic actually takes. Every number on this page is a median of single-stream browser tests from the H1 2026 window: Real-World Speed, measured on the open internet rather than inside an ISP's own network. It reads lower than peak-rate tests by design, and every country is measured with the same ruler.
