    Internet speeds are getting faster and faster in the past few years, with Gigabit internet actually becoming available to many customers across the USA. But is it actually necessary? A lot of the marketing for Gigabit internet is just pure nonsense, with vague reasons. This video goes over reasons why you may actually want Gigabit, and also reasons against getting it.

      Well that sucks. My family and I totaled 1.7 TB last month (this month already 1.6 TB) and we only have 89 MBit/s actual download speed and 31 MBit/s up (contract states "up to 100 MBit/s down and 40 MBit/s up", so close enough). And really I use my PC a lot, though not overnight. If I really wanted I could download near 29 TB and our contract would let me, but that is just excessive for my usecase (and those of my family who only really stream videos occasionally when it comes to high volume).
      I mean that is like those stupid obsolete German 4G tariffs here I never cared.
      "Pay a shitton of money (like >20€/month) for 2 GB of fast internet mainly to get throttled faster, since you don't care about latency anyway and just use up your quota faster."
      I mean I get >5 GB LTE, but 1 or 2 GB seems pointless to me, since even with just 16 MBit/s (which ain't even fast for 4G) your quota would be exceeded in 8 to 17 minutes downloading at full speed...
      ...I have 20 now since more is a luxury here in Germany (many neighbor countries have unlimited or 60 GB tariffs on the cheap, but I can't change the market)...

    Also note, the upload use-case only applies if the ISP wants you to have a high upload. I've seen most cable companies that do gigabit over cable have speeds like 1000 down / 25 up. So only the download is fast, the upload is barely faster if at all. Although, in theory, DOCSIS 3.1 can do 10Gb up and 1Gb down, but most do not have the infrastructure to do this. Fiber will typically give you 10Gb down and up.

    1) 25Mbit required for 4k video != 25Mbit going through the wire. (due to additional expenses on the transport layer)
    2) 4 users, utilizing 25Mbit each != 100Mbit in total (due to collisions, packets being re-sent, etc)
    3) You bandwidth does have something to do with the latency. ESPs use traffic shaping to limit the bandwidth and it has dramatic effect on your latency.
    4) 100Mbit on ESP's contract stated as 'up-to' 100Mbit, which means that you almost never have it during the peak times (like after work).

    I smiled when you mentioned big files on Steam because this is the only time I've ever felt my 10Mbs up/25Mbs down was a bit too slow. We have an Android box also 2 rooms away from the DSL modem and I've never had any buffering issues while connected to the LAN (1080p TV).

    The game download and cloud backup use cases are true. Another thing to consider is whether the connection is symmetrical or asymmetrical. Most connections are the latter and the upstream is usually a fraction of the downstream speeds and can actually affect downstream speeds as the connection becomes saturated with upstream traffic. You find this out really fast when you're playing a game like Battlefield 1 and streaming when suddenly you notice that your latency to the same game server goes from 90ms to 350ms because you're saturating your connection with upstream traffic. It's also been true for a very long time that the speed of your downstream connection has little to nothing to do with what you're connecting to. If a server is on a slow connection or overloaded the gigabit connection won't help you at all. Me, I'd be happy with a 150/10 at this point but it's expensive as hell.

  • @srsykes

    One important fact that you sort of glossed over is the upload speed of connection. My present connection, 480Mbps down and 10Mbps up is as you say way more download speed than I need right now. But the upload speed of only 10Mbps that Comcast offers is horrible. We are talking days, like almost five to backup my system to a cloud server whenever I need a full backup and not just an incremental. I believe upload speed with one gigabit down, is still only 35Mbps, so probably still over a day.

      It’s actually a “Server”
      Basically it is MY SERVER, but I don’t have the server PHYSICALLY in my house..... it’s there in a Datacenter
      there are many server providers, just google and you can get many server providers, some even provide 10Gbit or 10000Mbps speed.
      I was thinking to upgrade, but then I never did..... lol

    Subscribed! Kudos for making this video. Could you also please make a video on IPv6 versus IPv4. It's very important for everyone to understand this. IPv6, i.e. Internet Protocol version 6 is in many ways a lot better, including better internet security etc,, than the older IPv4. Many Internet Service Providers are still not upgrading to IPv6. Armed with this knowledge, one can choose the right ISP, internet plan etc. Looking forward to this soon. Thank you and best wishes.

    Does anyone know if, let's say there's two internet packs, one for 300 Mbit/s and another for 1Gbit/s, will they both download files at the same speed as long as you are downloading stuff that require less than 300Mbit/s ? Or even then, will the Gigabit connection be faster?

  • @simonbyrd6518
    @simonbyrd6518 5 лет назад

    You're gonna need a really good wired router, good ethernet cables, a fast computer, and most importantly, the fastest storage available. A pro M.2 SSD should work, but I was able to saturate a gig using a ramdisk of my system memory. It fills up quickly and you end up offloading to slower SSDs, then spinning drives, but you can do that concurrently for the most part.

    You should try and connect with EPB in Chattanooga, TN we have had gigabit internet for years. I utilize it for video editing everyday. EPB is also our electric utility company. If a power line goes down, they can re-route power to the most customers as possible until the power line is repaired. I’m sure you could reach out and get an interview with someone high up. Could be fun way to explore practical applications that utilize connectivity.

      Gucci Ghozt Lebanon, Beirut. Middle east. Here we already have the fiber optics infrastructure since about 2012 but there's too much corruption, the government wont turn it on for the benifit of some private and public sectors. We still use Copper wires and others similar to conduct internet and the maximum speed you can get is about 8Mbps for about a 100USD/month. A gaming lounge nearby has 40Mbps speed for 800USD/month. You can tell the benifits they're onto. The public doesn't know the difference between the prices here and in the west, and the're all blinded and being robbed. Lebanon: Great people + shit politicians.

    Awesome and very true aside from the never getting your full speed from your ISP. I work for an ISP and we provision above advertised speeds solely so people will hit #'s on speed tests (although they have no idea how the internet works or what the "speeds" mean). For example I have a 400 mbps connection provisioned ~435 and I regularly hit 420. Of course with a wired connection (no ISP in thier right mind would advertise wifi speeds- if they do you should look elsewhere) and compatible hardware and wiring. But everything else, spot on!

    I have a Comcast Business 150/25 connection. I do move massive amounts of data in and out of this network day in and day out. Lots of data between servers in my network and customer networks moves around. Lots of streaming media too.
    Considering the sources and destinations and analysis of my firewall traffic, I would love to have 150/150 or perhaps a wet dream of 300/300. It's really the current 25 Mbps out that's a stick in my craw.
    1-Gb seems useless to me.

    What sucks, is that some Internet service providers don't give you a symmetrical connection, with cox communications, you can only get 35 upload with their gigabit plan. You still have to rely on other services to restream your twitch streams to other services, especially if you have a high bitrate stream of ~5mbps

  • @jouniosmala9921
    @jouniosmala9921 5 лет назад

    The upload speeds are small fraction of download speeds, the slowest connection in here that would be fast enough to stream 4k from home to internet is 1Gbit. Another issue is that what speeds are available to your location, are there anything else between 100Mbit and 1Gbit. Linux users will have bi-yearly every single piece of software is available to upgrade at the time of your choosing. Majority of use cases for faster internet is trading money to save time, so if you make more money and use internet a lot then the small increments of time saved is worth it.

    ThioJoe, You may really good argument for who needs GigabitEthernet. As a network engineer, the more people you have more bandwidth you need. Even though you may only saturate 1/3 or 1/2 of the connection, but having that extra bandwidth will allow for you continue to use the connection simultaneously. I have seen many times where i would have 2 people in my house hold downloading games, and another person is unable to stream. It is all about your use case scenario. Either Way I like your argument. Keep up the good work.

    I know what I'm doing, I do network engineering and it was tricky getting gigabit to work in my household to work at the full potential. I have a fully wired house and running a linux vm for our router (On an esxi box) and I had to change setting on my switch and other places to get this thing working at it's full rate. I do bet the gigabit wireless access points are also a bit shitty. (I'm using an enterprise ubiquity wireless network but didn't expect it to fully get gig speeds as non of my laptops/phones can handle that shit.) It is nice having the better upload bandwidth. I was able to connect to my home computer from work and edit video and use Photoshop and it was glorious. Also been downloading big-ass files.

Your home security system is uploading video of your property to the cloud, while your daughter is downloading a huge file for a school project while watching RUclips 4K and all your smart TVs, desktops, laptops, tablets, smart fridge and game consoles are downloading and updating in the background while you are streaming Hulu or amazon prime and your wife is streaming cooking shows on her tablet. And all of this is going on at the same time flawlessly.

(note that I'm talking the real mbps that you actually get, not the advertised theoretical maximum)

  • @LeventDV
    @LeventDV 5 лет назад

    here i share my observations, feel free to add/correct;
    1- since people are uneducated about uses of upload band, companies offer it pretty low. but backing up, sending files, HD video calls, youtube uploads and healthy twitch broadcasting requires that instead.
    2- while downloading small data like pages and small files, the kbits increase gradually and will be already completed before you hit quarter your band limit.
    3- while browsing, your request will take time to travel. and server will spend some time to process your request/page. and it will take some time to arrive again. which are often longer than the transfer time anyway.
    4- depending on time of day you might be never able to hit your unrealistic limit due economic ISP infrastructure.
    5- if you are using wifi, especially if there are multiple wifi signals around you, forget above 10 mbits
    So 50 mbit down 16 up should be optimal for daily use(?)
