I’m not trying to disagree with this especially since you are talking about coax, but the new mmwave WiFi installations at places like Ohio state stadium have shown the opposite. The vast majority of their traffic were photo and video uploads to social media. Consumers want upload; it’s just overshadowed by streaming.
- usmannk 7y agoI imagine usage patterns in the home and at an event are very different.
- OGWhales 7y agoBut he does make a decent case that we generally upload more since the explosion of social media. Not sure by how much since people stream SO much.
- tonyb 7y agoThat's interesting, I wouldn't have considered that but it make sense. If I'm at a football game or concert I'm much less likely to be streaming content and much more likely to be sharing content than a user at home. On an unrelated note - I've been pretty disappointed with the WiFi at The Shoe. The first game I tried to use it I couldn't event join the network, the second time I could join but it wasn't usable. It was early in the season though so they could have still be working out the bugs - I can't even imagine how much goes into supporting a system like that. Trying to get 100k devices on a WiFi network is impressive.
