  • When we discuss Internet plans, there are two terms often used interchangeably: bandwidth and speed. However, these terms are not synonymous. Bandwidth is the capacity of the network, and the speed refers to the transfer rate of the data. But, what does that really mean?

      The man of wisdom always explains things as if to a 10 year old. The Man of Ego explains things to show how smart he is.

    You have latency that would be like pouring small glasses but you don't have enough hands to deal with the amount of requests.
    You also have distance limited by gravity that adds delay from the source to the end of the jar.
    You also have frequency that would could be translated as pressure on the pipes helping push water faster at the cost of overwhelming force add to the pipes.
    And then you have security network encoding that would be like a filter that clears water at the end xD

    Thank you for this video! A question please: why do some people express the bandwidth in GB rather than Mbps? I understand the storage data is in GB or TB and the net speed or the bandwidth rate is in Mbps. I've seen it used to express the installed capacity of the international bandwidth for a given country, but I don't understand the reason behind that. Can you please clarify that for me? I appreciate it very much. Cheers,

  • @libra7624
    @libra7624 Před 6 lety

    compression of data is smaller cups of water wich is easier on bandwidth and wont clog the digital pipe, for example in audio amr files (adaptive multiple rate) a narrow band audio i played with way back in the day could be used to do a 30 minute podcast with only 3 mb of data, so its a tiny mouse that can get through any bandwidth hole, and dont need a lot of speed, amr quality isnt the best but for speech and talk purposes it can be listened to and understood, if you dont mind a little static sound, anything lower then a sample size of 8,000 hz and under 12 kbps audio bit rate can get bad in being able to hear it, but as far as video compression we have videos like 176 x 144 with a minimum of 40 kbps video bit rate, 16,000 htz sample rate audio with at least a 64 kbps audio bit rate a full length hollywood movie can be under 100 mb, quality will not be the best but you can still see and enjoy the movie if you set the video in playback at its normal size, so going with compression and making data smaller is like replacing every car with 4 motorcycles in rush hour traffic, now 4 motorcycles can fit in each lane, so you get 4 data for the sacrifice of one big piece of data that was not necessary, 640p is fine, you dont need 1080p and 4k video, also companies like to push big sizes of data so they can charge you more like your cable or dish, for example 720 x 480 sd channels are the bottom line at 5 mbps video bit rates when you record by a tap in the back of some boxes, sports could be around 7 mbps and HD channels 9 mbps and above and only increasing every year in data, also the adding of 4k wich is insane at even way over 60 mbps wich is maybe 5 times that of 1080p from my dish box at 9-12 mbps, so if a company offered say like 320 x 240 at 500 kbps, its less data so charge the customer less, one thing about cartoons being solid colors is you can strip then files down 90% of its original video bit rate and still enjoy the cartoon, years ago i broadcasted on blogtv using compression and i had people watching my videos with outdated computers with less then 250 mb of ram, these where people for poor countries saying my videos dont freeze up like the rest, but this is because i knew about the end user and how they may have weak computers with single core processors and low ram, so compression can reach people better, yes the quality isnt the best but video is smooth flowing, services that let you broadcast have bandwidth bills and some may have budget bandwidth, this is why some broadcast sites you see peoples videos not performing well, its mainly because the encoders they use, the video bit rate is cranked up when the digital pipe is narrow, or their camera settings are 720p wich has a very high default video bit rate and it can be used with out broadcast encoders so they are un aware of the high video bit rate gumming up their broadcasts, if anything they should at least reduce the resolution so the video bit rate falls down with that decrease in size, its true speed and bandwidth are important but having broadcasted myself with sub standard requirements or both ram and processor, its not the ram or processor but how you use data and if you have killed resource hogs draining your ram in the task manager, you can have plenty of speed and bandwidth but a crappy un maintained computer

    If you are like a lot of households that are now enjoying "video streaming" such as netflix, google youtube, VUDU you need roughly 3 to 5M internet speed as service providers will suggest. Streaming videos will take a lot of bandwidth, typical movie almost 2G. What we are not being told here internet service providers have control of your bandwidth usage and that is called "Throttling". Cell phone service providers can promise you all the data you want and need for their unlimited plan but after a certain brand width usage your service will crawl beyond that threshold. ***What this really means all of a sudden to you as a Arvig customer?
    It means no matter what internet speed you already pay for you can expect a "Cap" on bandwidth in the future, and... you will pay for each GB of data you exceed. There is always a explanation to physics but in this case it is really called greed. For their already astronomical telephone and internet charges and no reinvestment of capital to provide reasonable and dependable customer satisfaction and service . 2018 expect to pay per GB of data after
    a predetermined capping level.

  • @alexlun4464
    @alexlun4464 Před rokem

    So pretty much everyone confuses speed with bandwith. When IPs advertise their services they advertise their plans as "speed" (ie we offer you an internet speed of 24Mbps) when in reality it is the bandwith, not the speed. The speed is determine by the medium through which data is transferred... a coaxial cable is going to be sending data much slower than fiber cable.
