Measured on this block in Apr-Jun 2026 — the ceiling the hotel's WiFi sits under. Shared WiFi, captive portals and per-device caps only make it slower, never faster.

Fixed line vs mobile
| Network | Down | Up | Ping |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fixed broadband — what the WiFi runs on | 166.9 | 22.6 | 44 |
| Mobile — your own SIM | 9.0 | 11.1 | — |
Do not plan on tethering here. Mobile upload (11.1 Mbps) is far below the fixed line (22.6 Mbps) — if the room WiFi fails, your phone is not a working backup for calls.
