Globe At Home tops Netflix’s internet speed index

Globe’s broadband business “Globe At Home” topped the latest Netflix ISP Speed Index for the second time this year.  Globe At Home led Netflix’s ISP leaderboard with an average speed of 3.2 Mbps in February 2021.

The Netflix ISP Speed Index is a measure of prime time Netflix performance on particular internet service providers (ISPs) around the globe. It is not a measure of overall performance for other services/data that may travel across the specific ISP network, it said.

“Our tireless efforts in improving network infrastructure are resulting in better connectivity, faster speeds and higher consistency. We expect our customers on wired plans using Netflix would be happy with our consistently reliable network experience,” said Darius Delgado, VP and Head of Broadband Business at Globe.
