I've done speed tests on 4 separate dishes within a 25mi radius of my house, and I consistently got around 90 down/10 up. The fastest test to date I've seen in my area is ~130 down / 60 up.

Earlier this year I was pulling 250/40 in Utah. Now during the day I hover around 120/15, with speeds back in the 200’s late at night. Of course YMMV, but it’s more than sufficient for my needs of remote work with several zoom calls per day, as well as streaming 4K content. It is a drag for things like large Steam downloads but I honestly can’t complain.
