Which internet provider is the best in Germany?

UpFromWhere ranks Germany ISPs by continuous measurements from real home connections: median latency to well-known anchors, jitter and packet loss, with each home's Wi-Fi hop subtracted. Rankings update daily and require at least 5 measured homes per provider.

How is this different from a speedtest?

A speedtest is one measurement at one moment to the nearest test server. This ranking is built from probes running every few minutes, 24/7, from real homes — so a bad evening cannot hide and a lucky minute cannot win.

How to read this: latency is the median round-trip to well-known anchors (1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8, 9.9.9.9) measured from each home, minus that home's own Wi-Fi hop. A provider is ranked only with 5+ measured homes. Full details in the methodology.
