The only thing personally I want is the same upload speed as download. So I can connect to my home server and download/upload stuff from it.

- sokoloff 3y agoI can see the desire for higher upload (because I have the same desire), but I don't care at all if they're the same. I'd rather have 200/20 than 15/15 or 20/20 (obviously), but I would also rather have 200/20 than 25/25.
- outcoldman 3y agoBy the same, I mean to match what we already get in most places as download speeds, at least 100-200mbps. Every household use google or apple photos app that upload backups to cloud services.
- olyjohn 3y agoHow are we supposed to have middlemen SAAS services making you subscribe to basic things if you can just do it yourself?
- DaiPlusPlus 3y agoIt's not just upload speeds though, don't forget also needing a static IP address (or two...) and unblocked ports, and a decent router and other networking gear. And when residential Internet goes IPv6-only (...eventually) you'll likely still need dual-stack IPv4 to avoid problems with connections from IPv4-only endpoints. Oh, and an SLA too... UPnP was meant to help alleviate some of those requirements but I don't think there's been any progress on that front since the spec came out in 2001...
