Ookla, the company behind the popular internet speed test service, has released its latest report[1] on mobile internet and fixed broadband internet providers worldwide, including Pakistan. The report ranks the best internet providers by taking into account data from millions of users over the course of January to June 2025 (H1 2025).
These ISPs (internet service providers) are rated based on Ookla’s performance scores, which are a combination of both daily consumer-initiated tests taken on Speedtest, along with quality of experience (QoE) metrics.
That being said, these were the best mobile network providers in Pakistan during H1 2025.
