Well, statistically average end-user internet connection in Europe is much faster than in the US. Maybe outside some places like most of western Germany, but these are an exception. Europe has really good bandwidth speeds, overall.

I absolutely agree with the rest, though, including the part saying any "serious" software will have such features (and better support in general), and I second the examples you gave.

USA it's huge and sparse, but Spain it's the same, it's like USA.rar. Crowded coasts, lots of mountains with a rough interior almost as empty as Lapland modulo Madrid. So, yes, you can have the issues on phone signal issues.

Phone signal? Okay. I thought we're talking about fixed broadband connections.

Ditto; I don't think fiber it's available at $LOST_REMOTE_FARMLAND_VILLAGE.

This is increasingly often the case. Also, don't forget that modern WISP equipment allows for 100Mbps+ speeds for a price next to nothing (Ubiquiti, MikroTik).
