What these numbers mean here

The median is the typical connection, not the best one available. Half the tests in Yuma came in below 79.4 Mbps and half above. The slower quarter of connections measured under 15.2 Mbps, while the faster quarter exceeded 198.9 Mbps — a spread that usually reflects a mix of fibre, cable and older DSL lines in the same area rather than one uniform service level.

At 79.4 Mbps down and 10.6 Mbps up, a typical household here can handle HD streaming and video calls, though simultaneous heavy use may compete for bandwidth. Latency of 16.0 ms is excellent for gaming and real-time calls.
