• Are you a hard-core online gamer?
• Are you addicted to streaming TV and movies online and prone to binge watching?
• Or are you more of a researcher who likes to keep tabs on what goes around in the world?

Don’t even think about going below 2 Mbps even for basic surfing. 5Mbps is a good start for casual browsing families who like check emails, basic web surfing, and social media usage. This speed limit is for those who don't use the internet much.

5-10 Mbps is a bandwidth suggested for casual web surfing, emailing and once in a blue moon streaming. This limit doesn't offer great download limit but you can download a 1 GB movie in about an hour. This connection is m ideal for the individuals to connect all their personal devices but not so great for families.

10-25 Mbps is the type of connection for a 4-5 member family. It will allow connectivity to more devices but if one device is downloading something, the internet speed for other devices may falter. But this connection is good for streaming HD videos and games.

25-40 Mbps connections are for internet junkies who like to binge watch entire seasons in a single go. This connection will allow multiple devices to connect and stream digital media worth of hundreds of hours without slowing down.

40+ Mbps connections are for hardcore internet streaming family, one that's also into online gaming. This speed can also enable you to watch 4k content on more than one devices and you will be able to download 1 GBs in a couple of minutes. Your other devices won't even experience lag if you are heavily downloading. This connection is for families that live and breathe internet.
