So we just got an email from our internet provider. Our current plan is up to 300 Mbps download and up to 30 Mbps upload. They're telling us that we need to buy a new modem in order to keep this plan. They're saying it's a retired plan so if we switch then we most likely won't be able to go back to it. The plan that they would switch us to is 500 Mbps download and 10 Mbps upload at no extra charge. To me, dropping up to 20 Mbps upload seems like a much bigger hit than an extra 200 Mbps dowload would be a gain. There are three of us living in the house. I do quite a bit of gaming and my son does a lot of gaming with some YouTube streaming mixed in. We no longer have dish so my wife streams a lot of shows and movies. My question is, is that 10 Mbps upload going to be enough if all three of us happen to be doing our thing at the same time? The other wild card is our oldest son comes home on some weekends so that would add an extra person to the mix.
