I'm on Verizon FiOS in Pennsylvania, with the standard residential 15/5 service, it's 10:44PM, and Netflix is streaming at a steady 3-4Mb/s. I guess I'm lucky?
How sad.
Mbps == Megabits/sec
MBps == Megabytes/sec
He wrote bits, he's only using a 5th of his pipe.
And while his link is 15/5 -- I still thin thats slow for FiOS -- but I had misread his comment..... I may have also been drinking.
I'm on FIOS; while the kids are watching Netflix in the living room, the wife is watching Netflix in the bedroom, and I'm playing a multiplayer game with no lag on the desktop. Seems everything works sharing the pipe just fine.
