Villasis tops Internet Bandwidth speeds in Pangasinan

By March 5, 2023Business

VILLASIS has the highest median bandwidth during peak hours than other towns and cities in Pangasinan (see tableĀ  below) while Dagupan City is lagging behind at 24th place (so it is not shown in the table).

The users in the listed top 20 municipalities can access much faster internet speeds, which can be particularly advantageous when engaging in activities such as streaming, online gaming, or video conferencing or work from home scenarios.

The municipalities with the highest median bandwidth during peak hours have been identified through crowd sourced data and analysis from Projectbass.org. These measures were taken only during peak hours. Peak hours refers to the time of day when internet usage is at its highest. This is between 6 am to 12 midnight. This is typically the period when there is the highest demand for bandwidth-intensive activities.

Bandwidth refers to the amount of data that can be transmitted over a network in a given amount of time. In the context of the internet, it often refers to the maximum download and upload speeds that a user can achieve through their internet service provider (ISP).

It’s important to note that median bandwidth refers to the midpoint of the range of bandwidth speeds that were observed during peak hours. This can be a more reliable indicator of typical speeds compared to other measures, such as average or maximum speeds, which can be skewed by outliers or anomalies.

The municipalities with the highest median bandwidth during peak hours are likely to have better internet infrastructure and more robust networks per subscriber. This can lead to a better user experience for residents and businesses in these areas. This can also have a positive impact on economic development and digital inclusion, as faster internet speeds can enable greater access to online resources and opportunities. It also does not bode well for Dagupan city, home of more BPO centers than the rest of the Pangasinan.

Overall, the results of the analysis provide valuable insights into the state of internet connectivity in Pangasinan and highlight areas where improvements in infrastructure and network capabilities may be needed to support the growing demands of digital technologies.
