If you have multiple people with multiple devices updating operating systems/software or downloading/streaming videos having the headroom so that everyone can go as fast as possible at the same time is rather nice.
- shepherdjerred 4y agoHow many people are in your household? I really can't see a use case for >1gbps symmetrical, at least not with the internet today. It is very, very rare that I can take full advantage of my 1gbps connection when downloading software, updates, or video games. Streaming videos rounds down to zero -- Netflix uses <20mbps at its highest quality setting, Apple TV Plus uses ~40mbps. So, unless a normal day is five people are downloading the latest 150gb Call of Duty, while three people download Windows 11, and another 10 are watching Netflix, it's really going to be hard to saturate your bandwidth.
