How Much Speed Do You Need?
When determining the speed you need, consider how you use the internet. Casual web surfing, email and shopping won’t require as much speed as higher-bandwidth activities like streaming, gaming or working from home. The number of devices connected to your network also impacts your speed requirements.
Here’s a breakdown of how many Mbps you need for common internet activities:
Speed | Common Internet Activities |
---|---|
1-5 Mbps | Web browsing & Email |
5-40 Mbps | 1:1 video calls & Streaming video |
40-100 Mbps | Streaming HD video on multiple devices & Downloading large files |
100-500 Mbps | Online multiplayer gaming & Working from home |
500+ Mbps | Simultaneous streaming or gaming & 10+ connected devices |
