That is not average. Most of Russia does not have access to those sorts of a speeds.

Check NAG.ru you will be surprised. Some regions started rural broadband connections via fiber optics, haha. :) 

If course there is no even 75% coverage, country is too big to cover everything. But main difference in (ISP providing) between NZ and Russia, we don't have monopoly and restrictions, for example if you don't have anything at your premises (phone line or optic connection and etc.) You can buy optic cable and run it to the closest ISP exchange/cabinet, after this you need to meet with technician and he will connect you, and after this you go to the the office and sign contract and etc.  

Cable is your responsibility and you pay only for connection and actual usage plan (and here you can chose unlimited or limited cap).
