I'm not sure what any of this has to do with the math. You claim 128GB over a 50Mb connection. That's less than six hours of constant streaming. Unless you want to qualify it with "during the times AT&T actually provided reliable service," your numbers seem off. A lot.
- quackerhacker 13y agoMaybe I wasn't clear (sorry). At the end of my testing after using 128GB (end of the month), I did the speed test to check if I was throttled. And just because my ipad was capable of that high DL speed, my hosting server that I was constantly streaming HD movies from, isn't capable of that upload throughput (50Mbps uploading).
- cmsmith 13y agoYou're assuming that streaming video can provide data at the same rate as speedtest. In reality those numbers are nowhere close, and don't reflect the reliability of AT&T's service.
- delinka 13y agoI'm not assuming anything. I'm asking for clarity.
- ricardobeat 13y agoYou'll have a hard time finding a 50mbit stream on the internet...
- nwh 13y agoEh? I'm regularly pushing several times that out of my $5 VPS.
- ricardobeat 13y agoIn a single video stream? 1080p uses 10mbps max. Are you japanese or do you have 4k/8k[1] equipment from the future? :) [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra_high_definition_television http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra_high_definition_televisio...
- nwh 13y agoNo, but the topic was network testing more than anything realistic. I missed the point, essentially. YouTube does have some 4K video though, which probably does hit that sort of bitrate.
- shawnz 13y ago10 Mbps is a good estimate considering modern video codecs, but it's not the upper bound. 1080p video at 32bpp and 60 fps could use as much as 3 Gbps, depending on the compression.
- quackerhacker 13y agoI won't doubt you, but HEY if you could send a link, I could use a VPS that has that kinda of pipeline for that price :)
