When it comes to quality Wi-Fi connectivity, the hotel industry in South Korea has emerged as the world leader, while Cambodian hotels are more likely to offer free in-room connectivity, says Hotel Wi-Fi Test.
For the purposes of the survey, analysts looked at the minimum requirements for real-world online activities. That is, a download speed of at least 3 Mbps (the Netflix recommendation for SD-quality streaming), and an upload speed of 500 kbps (the Skype recommendation for high-quality non-HD video calling).
