I feel using the Singapore server is a flawed test. How much contents are really stored in Singapore?
Really ? Where do you suggest to connect then ? US ?
Think about what you want to rate ? The service provided by Starhub or the performance of all the gateways and pipes throughout your destination ?
You think Starhub has a Fat Green Pipe installed all over the world ???
Starhub propose its coverage "Islandwide" for the rest, they are like anyother company, dependent on the local interconnections agreed with each countries ISP and network owners...
Think. Why do you want fast internet connection? Do I care what kind of agreement Starhub even has with other ISP and network operators? No. All I care is how long does it take for me to download/upload a file, or no delays what chatting, playing games, or doing whatever I am doing online.
You can have exceptional speed internet connection, but if you step outside of Singapore, it comes to a crawl, no matter how you spin it, still means slow.
