Average Internet Speed in Greece

Internet in Greece: what the data shows

At a median 25.7 Mbps download, Greece sits below the midpoint of the table: #71 of 119 ranked countries, 24% below the global median of 33.9 Mbps. The world's fastest median belongs to the United States at 144 Mbps, more than 5× the speed measured here.

Uploads trail well behind at 9.4 Mbps, roughly 37% of the download rate: download-tilted technologies such as cable, DSL and mobile broadband still carry most connections. Median latency is 72 ms. That is on the high side: pages and video still load, but calls, gaming and screen sharing carry a visible delay.

The provider table stretches wide: Nova Greece leads the measured ISPs at 91 Mbps, 3.6× the national median. A spread like that opens up where full-fibre networks compete against legacy copper and cable, so which network serves your address changes more than any plan upgrade.

Phones out-test desktops (30 vs 18 Mbps), a mobile-first pattern: cellular networks often outrun the fixed lines here, and mobile devices run 55% of tests. By operating system, Linux devices record the quickest median (116 Mbps) while Windows sits at 13 Mbps, usually a proxy for the networks and hardware each platform rides on rather than the software itself.

Tests from Greece most often reached the Sofia test server (56% 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.
