Two Vietnamese ISPs posted increases in January on the Netflix ISP Speed Index, which details ISPs providing the best primetime Netflix streaming experience, according to a statement put out by the streaming company.

FPT Telecom and Saigontourist Cable Television both rose by 0.2 Megabit per second (Mbps) to 3.4 Mbps, an improvement from 3.2 Mbps the month prior.

Elsewhere in Asia-Pacific, Australia’s MyRepublic NBN also rose by 0.2 Mbps to 3.2 Mbps.

Two ISPs saw decreases of 0.4 Mbps last month. Kuwait’s Zajil Telecom fell to 2.4 Mbps from 2.8 Mbps. Honduras’ TEVISAT dipped from 2.2 to 1.8 Mbps.

The Netflix ISP Speed Index is a measure of primetime Netflix performance on a particular ISP and not a measure of overall performance for other services/data that may travel across the specific ISP network. Faster Netflix performance generally means better picture quality, quicker start times and fewer interruptions.
