said by fifty nine:On a serious note, a lot of people are telecommuting these days and they need the upload to upload large files quickly.
They probably should be using a business account but I doubt that a telecommuter would be able to afford an OC connection to their home.
You don't need an "OC" connection to have a fast connection, but yeah, it's not necessarily going to fit under the definition of a residential connection.
Even with telecommuting, the necessity to be uploading large files frequency can be minimized with some planning. And if you are constantly needing to transfer large files, maybe telecommuting isn't the best fit for the job.
