Is the speed of internet faster than speed of light?

It doesn't reach a person half way around the planet in less than an instant. It takes so many milliseconds that it severely hampers remote surgery. read more

No, the internet you have is conveyed via radiation, of which the speed is equal to the speed of light, or through wires by moving electrons, whose drift velocity is less than the speed of light. (This is obvious since electrons have mass. According to special relativity mass tends to infinity at light speed. read more

Although fiber optic cables theoretically carry data at the speed of light, in reality there are reflections and other physical characteristics that slow it down. read more

Einstein famously postulated that, as Dr. White put it, “thou shalt not exceed the speed of light,” essentially setting a galactic speed limit. But in 1994, a Mexican physicist, Miguel Alcubierre, theorized that faster-than-light speeds were possible in a way that did not contradict Einstein, though Dr. Alcubierre did not suggest anyone could actually construct the engine that could accomplish that. read more
