Tony, I can tell you we see on average 30-40Mbps during the day for our public users. Of which there are on between 1200-2000 using it at a time. However we have restrictions in place for high bandwidth applications (file sharing, movie streams, etc) to bring this down from what was a higher, and forgettable at this point, bandwidth usage. I am not sure what number to put on a per user as there are certainly some outliers. We have seen some users doing 10+Mbps streams just from their one device. James
