For this reason I find the Mediacom's 3 Mbps Launch/Intro service to be sufficient most of the time. Ever since I replaced my dying modem last year, my two twenty-something kids, who are always streaming something to their laptops, haven't been complaining to me about the speed. The 3 Mbps service seems more consistent than our previous 12 Mbps service had been.
ADDED: And for me, the issue for streaming isn't so much the bandwidth (although HD is nice, I don't need HD) as long as the viewing experience is uninterrupted. Even with two kids streaming, we stay under 80 GB a monh. |
