At the HiVE, we have a 100/100 Fibre connection. We upgraded to that from ADSL and the main reason why was the poor upload speed we were getting before (5 mb/s up max). When we'd get 2-3 people trying to make Skype or Google Hangout video calls, the whole network would brown out due to the upload bandwidth getting loaded down.
Once we moved to a 100/100 account, we had no more problems but the up speed over wired was easily double that of the wireless connection. - Aaron _______________ Aaron Cruikshank Principal, CRUIKSHANK Phone: 778.908.4560 email: [email protected] web: cruikshank.me twitter: @cruikshank book a meeting: doodle.com/cruikshank linkedin: linkedin.com/in/cruikshank On Jan 8, 2015 10:42 AM, "Jerome Chang" <[email protected]> wrote: > I do want to make people aware of asynchronous bandwidth like 50 download > / 10 upload. > Connectivity can be much less reliable in the days of dropbox and other > vid/file uploads. > This is the reason why 50/50 is much more $$ than 50/10. > > > *JEROME CHANG* > > *WEST: Santa Monica* > 1450 2nd Street (@Broadway) | Santa Monica CA 90401 > ph: (310) 526-2255 > > *CENTRAL: Mid-Wilshire* > 5405 Wilshire Blvd (2 blocks west of La Brea) | Los Angeles CA 90036 > ph: (323) 330-9505 > > *EAST: Downtown* > 529 S.
