Yes. If i remember correctly.
I would imagine that is not on a vpn. If it is it might be a record for fastest.

Pretty sure Troy gets around 900Mbps with his 1G fiber without a vpn…don’t remember what he gets with it on…but don’t think it’s quite 500-ish…

I saw the analiti record posted awhile back but cant find it. 
Kind of overkill for streaming…but then again, if I could drive a 700hp Demon on the street every day…I would

yep, ive got the 900 down plan which I dont need…it was on sale or somethin’ 
The way I figure as long as my up is 20 or better I have no issues.

I don’t download large files to speak of, so super speed (altho cool to see…as is speed of any kind) is not needed at my casa’…when I cut the cord I got the 100Mbps plan from Comcast for $50/mo…& they keep increasing my speed au gratis’…up to 300Mbps now & I see faster speed tests but haven’t really noticed any change in my normal surfing…my computer guru told me many many years ago: you’re only as fast as the servers you’re connecting to…pretty sure he was right.

I’m the same, although I now get 80+ down with this new Proton VPN, all I really need is 30-35MBps for quality streaming. Now if that was a gaming setup with low lag, damn that’d be sweet.

Yep…close enough to instantaneous for my senses…that’s for sure. That’s what the gamers like…glad they can get it these days…we’ve come a long way from, what was at the time blazing fast 56K dialup…ha ha. Think I got into computers when it was 9,600bps in early 90s…yikes.

I got into computer when it was 300 or 600. Back in the days when punched card machines were great.

Yeah…collating machines…one of my high school classes did an exciting field trip to a local business in town that had collating machines…they were the cat’s meow back then…ha ha
Side note: if he’s not going thru a vpn…then he’s losing a lot of speed for having a gig at the modem.

I guess I’ll stick with my pedestrian 25 down. Ho Hum!
As long as it works for you, that’s all that matters.
Have fun and STREAM ON.

Fast enough lol. And that’s all that matters. Doesn’t have to be the fastest available.

Yeah, I remember getting 9K once when I was at a conference in Anaheim CA. Don’t miss those days!

While i live in the outskirts of a city im happy with my 10/1000 connections and unlimited bandwidth.
Moving to the country will change that. Thats later.
1g is good ebough for what i do. I could downgrade and be fine but im grandfathered into a payment nobody els gets… lol so ima keep it. Wish i still get employment perks. Canada needs a big tech and communications restructuring. Sorry off topic y apologies.
