Internet in Israel: what the data shows
At a median 59.3 Mbps download, Israel sits comfortably in the top quarter of the table: #26 of 119 ranked countries, 75% above the global median of 33.9 Mbps. The world's fastest median belongs to the United States at 144 Mbps, about 2.4× faster.
The median upload is 35.6 Mbps, about 60% of the download rate: the balance typical of a market mixing fibre with cable or DSL plans. Median latency is 74 ms. That is on the high side: pages and video still load, but calls, gaming and screen sharing carry a visible delay.
Cellcom tops the measured providers at 153 Mbps, about 2.6× the national median, so switching networks can matter as much as switching plans.
Desktops test faster than phones here (65 vs 50 Mbps): home Wi-Fi and wired links outrun the mobile networks that carry 37% of tests. By operating system, Windows devices record the quickest median (77 Mbps) while Mac OS sits at 31 Mbps, usually a proxy for the networks and hardware each platform rides on rather than the software itself.
Tests from Israel most often reached the Frankfurt test server (55% 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.
