Do You Really Need Multi-Gig Speeds?
While 8 Gbps sounds impressive, most households won't use anywhere near that bandwidth. Here's a reality check:
- 4K streaming only requires about 25 Mbps per stream
- Online gaming uses minimal bandwidth; latency matters more
- Uploading large files (content creators, backups) benefits most from high speeds
Our recommendation: 500 Mbps - 1 Gbps is plenty for most households. Go multi-gig only if you regularly transfer large files or have 10+ heavy users.
