guys i'm actually dying help
Cubing Cat- Fortnite people in Africa would love that tho .. u should appreciate what u have
I can relate
Damnn that is insane, I'd call and bitch so much they have no choice but to do something just to shut me up. What are you paying for?
Damn, I sure am glad I live in canada where I get 330mbps for both upload and download while I only pay for 300mbps
I must say, I'm on TPG HFC 100/40, and although it's pricey at $100 per month, it's awesome. Even during peak periods I'm getting around 60-70mbps, and off-peak it's pretty close to the advertised speed. The uploads are particularly noticeable, as I'm a musician and often share files.
What sucks is that this is not the norm, and that's outrageous. I have a friend in a well-developed (and relatively new -- ie maybe 20 year old) area whose 'net is so poor that if another family member uses it all while he streams video, the stream drops. Crazy.
I hate how people complain that their internet is slow and they have 10mb down. Try living with 100kb down and then 10mb is like a dream that is impossible to get.
Try living with 412 kbps
Legit gonna make you upset rn I have 25 down 4 up and I think mine is slow and we will be upgrading to 100down 25up
@Shawana Watt do you mean 50 gigabit or 50 megabit
Shawana Watt there is no internet as fast as 5gb, 50gb is impossible
@@aironasvitkauskinis7893 bruh tell me your joking tone of people have 10 gigabit internet so businesses even have 100gigabit
I have worked with over a dozen different internet providers and thousands of consumers and in my professional experience this video is not entirely accurate, primarily because you will not receive the full speed you are paying for with many cable providers dependent on whether that company uses dedicated lines or not. Many companies are built on a broadband network, the service will essentially be shared with your neighbors and the network has busy times usually between 3pm-10pm. My professional opinion will be listed below.
Email and basic browsing: 1-6mbps (1-2 people simultaneously)
Any standard definition streaming: 12-18mbps (1-2 people simultaneously)
Any high definition streaming: 18-50mbps (1-4 people simultaneously)
Video gaming/Streaming: 50+mbps (1-4 people simultaneously)
The technology for faster speeds are available in a majority of densely populated cities and are priced fairly relative to the expenses needed to set up the cable/fiber optic lines. Satellite internet service will always be much more expensive and will typically come with a low-ball cap to the amount of data available monthly, so avoid it when at all possible. If you run a VPN, I'd recommend over 100mbps/100mbps at minimum, but whatever works best for your budget and service needs is really going to be at your discretion.
And all you got is 2 likes. GOOD JOB BROTHA
I know your comment is two years old but, I'm curious if you can provide an answer. Why does a VPN require such a large speed?
Walt of All Trades because all the data is sent to the vpn servers first to be encrypted, then sent to whatever server you're reaching and vice versa. Also the vpn server you're using is most likely in a different country
Thanks ThioJoeTech that video was very informative I learned a lot of stuff I didn't know before in a short amount of time and you answered a lot of my questions I know exactly what internet service plan I'm after now and what's right for me
This was actually useful! Without a whole lot of extraneous info!
Definitely agree; more than 25 mbps is virtually unnecessary. I'd probably be considered to be a "power user", but I manage to survive with a 24 mbps connection. However, what _really_ pisses me off (particularly with AT&T), is the _upload_ speed. 2 mbps. That's truly pathetic. Almost unbearable for a content creator.
Yea 2 mbps is so slow
Lucky American bastards. We get like 10 down 0.5 up at like $70 AUD
***** 67 down 17 up.rekt
SkeleCrafter haha. U think murica is lucky. £40 a month for 67mbps internet, phone and TV in uk
25 megabits? Lol lmao I have gigabit
Really Useful video. keep it up man!
thanks joe. You made me understand what I wanted and needed to know about internet speeds alot more than what I knew. Thanks and ill keep watching your videos
try living in Australia, I get 1.5 Mbps download and 0.3 upload, it's actually depressing. and it's like impossible to upgrade it.
very true, cannot wait till NBN (faster internet) comes
TommyTalks21 Thats depressing? Somewhat Central Queensland and I'm getting no more than 150kbs IF I'm lucky, normally goes to around 130-140. But yes the NBN will be much approved , to bad its going to take 5 years to be installed here.
Spuds yeah i feel for you man, I'm lucky enough to be having NBN come anywhere in the next year or so. Stay strong my friend, stay strong.
Haha, my uncle in Sydney has 30Mb internet, from spending 4 weeks there and coming back home, the difference was painful.
can understand, my friend has 30 mbps as well. i cry everytime, but soon im getting cable internet, and my internet will be much faster.
When you have to download a 50GB game......... :( You might need more than 25Mbps for that. 50 GB = 400,000Mb. 400,000 / 25 = 16,000 seconds. 16,000 seconds = ~266 minutes = ~4.5 hours.
Samuel Chen 30 mbps?
Samuel Chen my game updates are 1.5 GB and they take like 5.5 hours. I have a download speed of 1.5 at HIGHEST. Average 1.20 when no one is on the internet but if only two people are on it slows down to .35 Mbps
Samuel Chen Lucky mine takes 20 hours to download that much.
Tom Wants 1250 Subscribers Huh i have a Gigabit internet takes less then 5 mins to download a 50GB file
Tom Wants 1250 Subscribers 0 idea if you are being sarcastic or what but you can go google.com and search for google fiber wifi 👍
Thanks for this video. Greatly appreciate it. Nicely, well explained.
This was super helpful! Thanks! :)
I pay for six Mbps, the highest plan here in my area of Colorado (I'm about fifty miles southeast of Denver.) and I get 1.30 down, 0.52 up with a ping of 44, I hate it.
I hate it when they fuck with us people that has no other isp choice
dam :( I feel so sorry for you I felt terrable when I had 5mbs for downlode and just under1 for up.
i live in a rural area and i ldk honestly
Gabe Miller I have way worse I have 1.30 up (average) .40 down (average) 80-100 ping average but when more than one person is on the net it slows to .30 down and .10 up and 150-300 ping.
Gabe Miller I get 832 ping
5Mbps down which comes to around 800kbs (according to blizzards beta profiles) and a painful 0.2Mbps upload speed. 500gb cap. $115. God bless Australia.
:\
great video explaining what I needed to know without the hype! GOOD JOB...THANKS
I found this channel because of your comedy ThioJoe. However, this tech channel is actually really good, and can help a lot of people. I'm surprised it's not much more popular.
I'm so happy I'm finally getting a 30mbps internet speed. Before I was at 4mbps and it is so bad
Hows the 30mbps doing for u?
I have 4 mbps and I'm going to upgrade to 15 mbps in the 19th of this month to end 8 years of struggling with 4 or less mbps
Well this definitely sucks for me. My little sister won't EVER get off the internet, she is always streaming Netflix movies and watching CZcams videos. Then I have my mom always on the internet, such as yahoo, youtube, facebook, twitter, and cookie clicker all at the same time, just for her business. Finally my step-dad is a huge gamer/Netflix watcher. So that leaves me with barely anything, just to get a decent connection I have to be up at around 2 - 9 am!
+EndroDesigns I don't even want to know what you want internet for. If I were your brother I would probably block your sister and you from the router and leave your mom, dad an myself connected.
I laughed so hard when I read "and cookie clicker"
I am not joking XD
Thanks for this information. We are always bombarded by ads to increase internet speeds to 50-100 mbps by the providers. I get 25-30 and always wondered if I should upgrade. You've helped me decide, not to mention saved me $$.
ThioJoe this was informative. What do I need for editing websites? HTML in particular. Thanks!
1 mbps... CenturyLink, "Super Fast! Good for email and watching HD videos."
Me, "Bruh"
Have 100/100 need more !!!!
Asmir Dzinovic always need more internet!
***** Uh how do you get that...i get like 400 kbs down and like 1 kb up...AND I DON'T KNOW WHY XDDDD
talk to the person who pays internet in your house xd, and talk to people who provide you internet to see all pacages they got PhantomZ
+Asmir Dzinovic 94/39 QQ
I have a shitty connection of 100/6
very helpful, thanks for the information.
Glad you brought up the per user thing. That is often overlooked. Another critical thing in my opinion is the number of wifi-connecting devices on that network as well. While mobile devices don't use a lot all the time, there are times they can, but they are almost always using a little. This will only get more important to consider as the "Internet of things" becomes more of a household standard..
I have a 52 MB/S internet speed and when downloading Steam games, the max it goes up to is about 2 MB/S. And yes, I've went into the settings and have made sure there is no bandwith limit. UPnP is also turned on.
Try changing download server and disabling UPnP
I love your profile picture Shizune Hakamichi
Elias Eskes Actually, your math's wrong. 25 megaBITS = 3.125 megaBYTES, she/he should be seeing somewhere around 5-6 megaBYTES of download. However, depends on a number of factors... latency, location, etc.
Shizune Hakamichi If you use internet speed testers, they usually use ideal servers that are really close. On the other hand, steam servers are not everywhere, and it is limited by valve's internet speeds as well as yours.
***** 1) No 1 cares
2) Its a common steam bug
I have 2mbps... yay...
Exane me around 3 mbps..... 😢😢😢😢 But Its Kinda ok
I Have 1 Mb/s.. Yaay
Exane same bro, same 😞
i have 1
mfw my average mbps peaks at 100mbps lmao.
thanks this helps a lot
I have 100mbps up 100mbps down and it costs only about 20$ :3. Yay for Europe?
i'm jealous
***** :3
that's the way it should be!
im hella jealous
I'm from Lithuania.
Internet retailer:WE ARE GIVING YOU 10 MBPS DOWNLOAD AND 10 MBPS UPLOAD
ME:WOW,GIMME SOME
REALITY:DOWNLOAD 5 MBPS UPLOAD 1KBPS...
But they didn't mention any Upload speed tbh,Bandwidth = Download
Nice information and thanks for sharing
Excellent video thank you
I have 1mbps and I'm a no life and play video games and I live with 3 other people
How does my school afford 150 mbps download and 90 mbps upload.
120 down 50 up in Chandler AZ
thanks dude very helpful :)
Upload: 1GB
Download: 1GB
Mbps: 50
Is that good?
[GD] Dizzolved do a speed test at www.speedtest.net
I have 500 MB of Download and around 500 MB of upload ( I have Glass Fibre in Switzerland)
Thats excessive.
that is awesome sadly only have 500 mb download/ 20 upload
kevin parker Your probably in Canada that’s why the upload speed is crap
Thx this helped alot🤘🏽
Thank you, this video helped me make my mind, almost signed up for a 100mbps plan being that I live by myself. I am a heavy user of internet and streaming but not to the point of hugging 100mbps by myself.
I have 3mpbs and the max where I live is 6mbps we only have one major internet provider
How well does your internet handle online streaming videos like on Netflix at 3mbps?
Natalie Childs surprisingly decent as long as only one person is streaming. I recently upgraded to 6mbps now though
Thanks for that.
Would 150 Mbps be okay for two PS4s to play online without lag?
There may be occasional use of a tablet and laptop on the wifi but that's about it
alex gonzales Yeah that's more than enough
Basil Minhas is 20mbps fast?
Lil Biglife Not for today's standards
Basil Minhas I have 10 mbps on my ps4 lol is it ok
Elite_Tony not really , but if you play game that takes so much internet like , call of duty, and battlefield 1 then no , but if you don't . Then you will be ok
Very clear. Tx man
i have 330 upload speed is that good or bad? my fownload is 326 and my ping is 3
Our wifi is at 20mbps,
But i asked for 50 mbps :D
@estaocupadoYahawahbashamYahawashi right
Mine is 150 mbps, it downloads at 1mb per second.
I'm getting 1200 mbps
I used to have 3Mbps between 4 people...
Brutal
Dan Young Deal with it, I had 1 Mbps for 5 people...
how do you guys live with that
Dude, I don't even know
Jaybones73 Official ikr
I live in Devon, UK. I had a 1 Mb download speed up to 2011, then out of nowhere it was upgraded to 5 Mb. Then, in April 2015 FTTC became available. I have myself and my parents in the house, we all watch CZcams and sometimes watch BBC iPlayer as well as surfing the internet. I had 2 options, stick with my 5 Mb download or upgrade to the faster FTTC BT Infinity option. So, I went for the Infinity option which now gives me a download speed of 38 Mb which is great for 3 people, no problems with buffering anymore like I used to have if I was watching HD CZcams and my dad was trying to watch BBC iPlayer.
Great explanation.
Megabits mmeeeggaaabbiiitttsss
Either bytes or bits
Actually, 100 mbps plan in my house works pretty good!
lol I have 1000mbps
SonsyWhale I have 400 mbps
you are getting robbed
I have 5MB/S download speed and 2MB/S upload speed (43mbps & 16mbps). I can stream Netflix in 1080p across all my devices (PS4, iPhone, & Laptop) with no issues. I can download a 1080p high definition movie in about 10-15 minutes. My connection to various hosts during multiplayer gaming on my ps4 is usually a 4 bar but sometimes a 3 bar. My ping is relatively low during pc gaming & is usually under 100ms. I live in a family of 3 so it's more than enough for us :)
Very good video. I always wondered what speed I really needed. I have FIOS...speed test shows....31 Mbps (download).....52 Mbps (upload). There's usually just 2 of us here and we use the internet basically for browsing/streaming. Rarely do any downloading, never do any uploading. Based off of what you said in the video, it sounds like I could probably downgrade my internet package (fortunately, I'm able to choose between different internet packages).
I had 50 mbps but i upgradede it to 100 mbps is that enought?
Bhoppin More than enough
ok thx
Bhoppin NP
Yea i ran a hd netflix vids and 4k youtube video a ps3 and xbox one a phone and doenloading and i still didnt get lag
x Spookeyy Omg Thx! Im Planing To Upgrade To 100mbps. If Im Downloading A Game,Lets Say 60-90 GB. Is It Gonna Download Pretty Fast?
how many mbps i need to play multiplayer
Like twelve down and six up for optimal gaming, w/o any lag
I have 5Mbps download (700kb/s) and 1Mbps upload... for $23 a month.
I have 15 Mbps download and 1 Mbps upload for 10$
2mb/ps is minimum requirement.
Expect "lag" at 2mbps.
Thank you 😊 very helpful
I knew 🍆 about this. Thanx a lot. You were super helpful.
this might be a dumb question and I'm a teenager but, how much internet speed do you need for 4 to 5 people if they use the internet
8 Megabits should do the job. But for best Quality you should get 10 or 12 megabits.
ok thx nibbii
no
alot mor mbps
I would look for something about 25+ Mbps is you can
im watching this with 21.6Mbps with hacked internet
lewl lewl lewl lewl
Hacked?
+gameplay boss i bypassed my mobile data basic internet speed limit. from 10KB/S i get to max i can get
AZZAMNO1 nice
can you hack mine
lol
thank you so much. you may be a troll but your informative so thumbs up to you
Very usefully information
I have 1tbps fasted in the world!
Nomadic Cheese wins the winner button
Tut Tut, Language. Wait til your father gets home you bad boy.
GET ROASTED
Lmao thats BS
Send me 10 mbs a second bro
i get 75 mbps down/5 mbps up
is the gaming quality good (no lag) mostly 5 bar connection?
yeah
same
20 mbps upwards is good for gaming. Depending on the number of devices that are using the mbps.
200 down/8 up for 30€. For 4 month I only had 1/1
I currently have around 3mbs and it works kinda ok but streaming sucks and working is a mission. I just ordered fiber 20mbs up and 20mbs down so cannot wait for the installation then can work with ease and streaming won't be such an mission any more. Thanks for the video it was very helpful.
Also partially depends on the technology. With cable where your connection is shared with neighbors, you don't often get the full bandwidth you think you're paying for in this age of streaming, it's more of a "burst" than an "average" or "expected" measurement. In such a circumstance I would usually recommend 100-150 Mbps if you can afford it.
How can I double my internet speed for free?
I think thio joe has it.
Wrong channel

no shit! I didn't see it passing over my head.
thanks now i understand this! have always been lied to... thanks a bunch
Thx for the info. ^^
I remember downloading a DVD over dial-up, it took a month. I never got disconnected though - and that's saying something.
😂😂😂
Nice job
Mine is 117 down/ 30 up. Time Warner (now called Spectrum) in Dallas, TX
I am passing from 10mbs 1mbs to 50mbs and 10mbs do you think I am gonna be able to stream in full HD when I am alone on the connection?
Im going from 5 down/0,5 up to 34 down/10 up when Im moving this christmas. 16 years of fucking lag in games, wanting to kms every time i try to play good. Its a new start
I'm in a small area of San Diego county. Cox doesn't serve here "yet" and ATT provides 5 up max. I have seen it higher on a few occasions but what I find oddly funny is that I get the worst connections usually between 2-5 A.M. pst. You know, when most people are sleeping!
Great vid!
Thank youuuu this video helped me f*** much 💕
In my country 100mbps (11MB/s) is the standard low for like 9/10 euro, but most people use 300mbps (30MB/s) which cost between 15 and 25 euro. It's for both Down and Up
I live in the uk. I am a massive internet user and I have been gaming streaming watching on 60mps with BT in a family of four for years. Getting around 1mps down 500kb up as my ps4 wasnt wired. In a month we are switching to 200mps with virgin and im getting an ethernet cable to hook it up to my ps4. Im really hoping i see a massive difference
My deal is this: I have Comcast economy internet, 3mbps. I have my computer and an second ethernet cable going to a DISH Wally box to get the interactive TV, including the local weather forecast. My internet will not support both. When the DISH interactive service WAS working a few nights ago, my internet would not even pull up. When Comcast sent a signal to my modem, my internet worked but the DISH interactive service dropped. Simple question please, what speed of internet do I need to support both of these services, my internet and DISH interactive service? Thank you so VERY much!!!
In the uk hyperoptic offers 1gb upload and download speed
I'm going from 7 mbps to 40 mbps because of two other people using my Wi-Fi will that help?
Supposed to be getting up to 70megabits down but usually get 30-40 megabits. As for upload speeds, I usually get around 15megabits, which is much closer to the advertised rate than the download
agreed
Wow! Things have changed so much in the past 3-4 years. I was paying 4$ every month for 2 GB data, getting max speed of 0.5 Mbps. And fast forward today, for the same price, I'm able to get 15 Mbps unlimited data every month!
I have a question, My family and I stream everything. Are alarm system is even based on wifi. We currently have 150mbps, however sometimes are video surveillance is a bit slow. I was wondering if we jumped to 300 mbps would we see any noticeable difference? FYI we are a family of 6. Thank you for the video!!
we are 5 people at home and 2-4 people use the internet at the same time (life streaming )
we have 50 mb/s would you recommend us to go higher or not?
Thank you so much for this video im very technologically illetrate. This is good for people like me that need a simplified explanation like internet for dummies.
Marcy C “illetrate” lol you’re just plan illiterate
Thanks
Mine is 3.0 MBPS From LTD Broadband Local to Glenville MN and I would love to upgrade personally
Would 200mbps be enough for about 4-5 people using it on Netflix,youtube, social media and playing games on mobil devices like cod without lag?
Just upgrade from 6/1 (usually only got (3/.5) to 60/5 it feels so good
Where I live, in Hopkinsville Ky. We live just outside of town. Now in town you have the choice of several providers and as much as they will offer!! Where I am!! just a few miles away. . . there is half the provider options! We have att u-verse (there bottom pkg of 3 mbps!). But it is just not enough for one of us. . . . Let alone the 4-5 of us that use the wifi. Even though i don't want my internet affected by the weather, or the expense of it. Should I get satellite internet? I'm tired of not having enough!! Gonna try out all your tricks first and see what happens. Let me know TJT! Peace
Ok. I have a problem with download speed.(it takes ne 6h to download rainbow six siege.)
But I quickly can download skype etc.
When you are playing a game like cs:go or tf2 and you got to a map that you have played before. What matters in the loading? Networks Download speed? SSD? What?
-Thanks, L4nk.
Used to have a Telenor monopoly here in my area, with 5 Mbps being the top speed. Now they've largely been kicked out by another company that delivers up to 200 Mbps. I've currently got 50. 50 Mbps down and around 20 Mbps.
I was just thinking about this the other day. I currently have a 50 Meg plan but was thinking about going to a 15 meg plan. I am still up in the air though.
I had a 100/10 plan with Comcast that cost about $54 per month. I frequently download HD movies and television shows. Some of those movies can run as high as 7-8 gig each. My internet connection was actually around 118Mbps down so my downloads were capped at around 14.7 Mb/s. With this speed and an excellent connection to the download server I was getting movies downloaded in about 8-12 minutes with 720p television shows taking around 1-4 minutes depending on size. I have a lot of downtime for work in the form of traveling from job to job with some drives taking 2 hours or more. Fortunately I have Xfinity mobile which is really just Verizon with unlimited data so if I run out of movies or shows on my phone I can just stream youtube. I wanted to get my downloads done a lot quicker so I upgraded my modem and my service to 250Mbps which in reality is 277Mbps. With this speed my Ultra HD movies now only take 3-5 minutes with television shows taking 0:23-1:39 each. I am very happy with this upgrade as it allows me to pick what I want in the morning, start the download, get ready for work and by the time it's time to leave my downloads are all done. On my old 10Mbps plan I had about 4 years ago with most HD files capped at 2gig each it still took over 30 minutes per file. This was terrible at the time. I might actually upgrade to 1Gbps which they offer in my neighborhood for only $40 more per month than the plan I have now. My uploads will still be capped at 35Mbps and if I needed more I would need to go to the 2Gbps-down/2Gbps-up plan which costs $300/month with a two year contract. Fortunately I don't do too much uploading so I currently don't need these speeds. I would reccomend to anyone that downloads files over 1Gigabyte to at the very minimum get the 100/10 plan which I believe is actually now 150/10 for only $55/month it's only $15 more than the 60Mbps plan at nearly 3 times the speed. In my area for home use the slowest plan available is the 60Mbps plan at $40/month. Business plans are much different though with the cheapest business plan being 10/1 at arount $60/month.
i'm Looking Forward Buying a New Wi Fi card Should i Get a 150Mbps or 300Mbps .Will it Make any Difference (My Router is 2.4Ghz)
I was wondering what you think about the 5 gig for $50 that cell phone co. charge for hot spots do you think its to high of a cost because I can go through 5 gig's in less than a day just doing normal updating of my computer or laptop.
For 5 years I had a download speed of 6.4Mbps and a upload 0.8Mbps.
Then outta nowhere I got the upgrade and now rocking it with a download speed of 76.4Mbps and upload of 18Mbps.

Thanks
I have a 100mbit connection. But I have two other people constantly using Netflix and I'm always streaming on one monitor and gaming on the other while a lot of the time having movies download in the background. 100mbit seems about right for my needs.
I have a question, I have me my mom and my dad and I play on my ps4 and very very frequently watch dodger games twitch and CZcams on my phone and on my computer, I have 25 mbps and it is bad for games and isn't to amazing for streaming I will be playing madden nfl 17 online and it will lag tremendously and I will lagg out often, I had Comcast what speed internet should I get to where I can comfortably do all of that while my parents use it a little bit with no lagg buffering or interruption, thanks
