What kind of internet speed do you have?

I was wondering as i have literally today finally been upgraded to fibre.
I have been on 30Mbps down and 2Mbps up for a long time.
over 15 years ago i thought this was an acceptable speed - we did not have that 15 years ago, probably about mid 2010s it was introduced.
Now with all sorts of updates you kind of need more - general browsing internet / streaming it was fine really - video calls was hit and miss really as was hitting the 2mb capacity.

I have now chosen to go with 500Mbps Down /Up for only a slight increase in price, talking like £5.
I can get up to 2Gbps Down / Up but the price for this is crazy really.

What is your internet speed, what can you get up to?

i just checked and it displayed 25 mbps down speed and 2 mbps up.
i still don't get why the video gets stuck when I watch 720p videos lol

yeah thats what i had basically, should be fine for multiple 1080p streams.
Not sure,on all videos or just specific sites?
Could be wifi interference if you have some neighbors close by.

I assume you are using WIFI?
I assume it happens on all devices or is it device specific?
Literally the same speed i had until i was able to upgrade to 500, so you should be able to watch 1080P no problem.
1080P streaming uses about 5 maybe little less or more.
