I have access to about 20Gbit at work (University). At home, I think I have about 8Mbit or something. I don't notice the difference. 8Mbit is (currently) more than fast enough for the vast majority of people using the vast majority of services on the Internet. I doubt I'd even notice if my home connection dropped to 2Mbit.
- zxoq 15y agoI have a 1 gbit connection at home and there is little difference to the 100 mbit connection I have at my parents. The gains are pretty much the same as the difference having wifi and gigabit LAN. Transferring large files etc. are in the minute range rather than tens of minutes or even hours. But 10mbit is definitely not enough to use the internet effectively, hell, my HDTV soaks up that much just watching any a generic HD channel, if you had 2 TVs running it would slow to a crawl.
- mike-cardwell 15y agoWell, I guess I must not be using the Internet, "effectively," then, whatever that means.
