What these numbers mean here

The median is the typical connection, not the best one available. Half the tests in Franklin came in below 50.9 Mbps and half above. The slower quarter of connections measured under 24.2 Mbps, while the faster quarter exceeded 175.9 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 50.9 Mbps down and 16.3 Mbps up, a typical household here can handle HD streaming and video calls, though simultaneous heavy use may compete for bandwidth. Latency of 30.5 ms is acceptable for most real-time use.
