As one of the country’s most remote states, Alaska is often behind the eight ball when it comes to new developments, especially in technology. A new study confirms what many have suspected: Alaska’s internet speeds are among the slowest in the country.

What might be surprising is that Alaska wasn’t the slowest in the test; Akmai Technologies said Arkansas took the red lantern with the slowest rates in the USA.

Report author David Belson said Alaska’s Internet speeds are up 33 percent from last year, but they’re still only half as fast as the three states with the best internet delivery: Virginia, Delaware and Massachusetts.

The rankings are based off content, such as websites and videos, delivered to users from their servers.

Compared globally, Alaska’s rates are still fairly good. The United States ranked 12th worldwide for internet speed, while Libya had the slowest connections.
