I have been all over Egypt, and def the worse internet is in Dahab. I really don't know how this statistics work. Data is about 8 mbps download and 4,5 upload. With wifi you will get the same, It also depends on your location around the village. In other areas in Egypt was much better,

Dahab is amazing! Thanks to being one of the few warm and open places during covid, there's a great professional expat crowd here right now. I love it and plan to extend my stay by a couple months.

Dahab became hard to live in, supermarkets are very expensive than the real costs of things. Rubbish everywhere in the streets. Every now and then we here a lot about not friendly to women acts. I dont recommend living in Dahab.
