Articolo divertente: Sale. presumibilmente ha la migliore offerta/prestazione di accesso Internet da casa in Svizzera. Tuttavia, solo Sale.Sunrise e Swisscom sono state «testate» (più probabilmente «guardate»). init7ad esempio, manca del tutto.

Switzerland: Salt awarded for «best fixed-line broadband performance»
Performance tester nPerf has examined Swiss fixed-line providers. Salt offers customers symmetrical fibre.
By Henning Gajek
When it comes to speed and performance tests in fixed-line or mobile networks, most readers think of Ookla (speedtest.net) or perhaps OpenSignal. Alongside these, there is nPerf, which offers a comprehensive test as a smartphone app, with quite realistic test sequences (e.g. accessing popular websites and loading videos at different resolutions).
Swiss fixed networks put to the test
nPerf has now tested Swiss fixed-line providers. The winner, Salt—originally launched in mobile as «Orange Switzerland»—also offers fixed-line services. As Salt proudly reports, it has «remained at the top of the nPerf 2025 ranking in Switzerland with a clear lead». In 2025, Salt customers benefited from the «best overall performance for their fixed-line broadband internet connection». Salt took first place in the nPerf ranking across all fixed-network technologies, as well as in the FTTH (fibre to the home) and Wi-Fi categories.
nPerf’s figures are indeed impressive: in the test, Switzerland’s second major provider, Sunrise, came second, and the long-established market leader Swisscom came third.
Top scores in four disciplines
Salt achieved «top scores» across four key points (KPIs), including download and upload speed as well as latency, and also shared first place for video streaming quality. One reason is likely the «Salt Home» offering, based on symmetrical 10 Gbit/s technology, which delivers dreamlike figures for private customers—and which many other providers (especially in Germany) either do not offer at all or, if they do, is simply unaffordable.
Salt recently expanded its offer with «Salt Home+», which uses the current Wi-Fi 7 technology.
nPerf, an independent international provider of internet performance tests, has published its annual fixed-network barometer for Switzerland.
Salt goes all-in on fibre to the customer
These dreamlike results need explaining: in its marketing, Salt focuses consistently on fibre (FTTH). But fibre is still far from available everywhere in Switzerland, as Salt candidly acknowledges: Salt’s fibre broadband offer is currently available to around 2.9 million households, which corresponds to roughly 60% of all households in Switzerland, with coverage expected to rise to three million households.
(Graphic: Almost unbelievable for German readers: Salt offers 10 Gbit/s symmetrical fibre at German DSL prices.)
Salt wants to offer customers «added value»
To stand out in competition, Salt equipped its customers early on directly with Apple components (e.g. Apple TV). Prices may also make German readers green with envy: Salt’s fixed-line services are available from 39.95 Swiss francs (around 43 euros) in combination with «Salt Home», provided you also have a mobile contract with Salt, which costs extra.
Without mobile, it starts at 49.95 francs (around 53.55 euros). On top of that, 49.95 francs are due for activation of phone/internet and separately for internet TV—so in the worst case a one-off 99.90 francs (107.10 euros) before you can get started.
With the recently introduced Salt Home+ offer, a Wi-Fi 7 router is included and it is combined with attractive premium content from Sky and Canal+.
Max Nunziata, Salt’s CEO, can be proud to offer his customers «the most powerful fixed-line connection at an unrivalled price-to-performance ratio». One can agree with his argument: «Our digital lives increasingly depend on a reliable, high-performance next-generation connection.»
Salt. has the bestest home internet access in Switzerland 😉

very happy with salt
From the quoted [study](https://media.nperf.com/files/publications/CH/CH-Barometer-mobile-connections-nPerf-2025_7880.pdf):
>We only include national internet service providers with a test share greater than 5%.
Classic [sampling bias](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_bias). Crappy study, IMHO.
