As long as you aren't running a xxx server from your home

the upload isn't as important as the download. Your download is screaming.

My FIOS in VA using my 5G wifi router is currently at 69 download 73 upload. I am the only one currently at home so no competition for the bandwidth.

I'm getting 114.3 download, and 9.5 Mbps upload -- EDGEMAN 06/17/2019 12:26PM

Sounds like Comcast ** -- Baltimore Hokie 06/17/2019 11:56PM

Does this have to do with Netflix? -- Betabeachbum 06/17/2019 7:35PM

Is this on a Cellular connection or a Wired connection. The UL is crap.... ** -- vt_mughal 06/17/2019 2:45PM

Cable broadband internet. ** -- EDGEMAN 06/17/2019 6:06PM

97/95 on my phone with FIOS WiFi.** -- Femoyer Hokie 06/17/2019 1:20PM

10.4 down, 5.4 up in Radford with Shentel. Never been a problem. -- HokieSignGuy 06/17/2019 12:51PM

I've got Shentel as well. Even with 10mbps, I've had no issues streaming -- Tafkam Hokie 06/17/2019 1:44PM

Similar to mine. I was testing my speed the other day due to a video that -- IB4TECH 06/17/2019 12:51PM

Put aluminum foil on your head and you can listen to the radio, too. ** -- UEMcGill 06/17/2019 4:33PM

That sounds like BS -- Vienna_Hokie 06/17/2019 2:49PM

I agree, but it was so easy to test I did it anyway. ** -- IB4TECH 06/17/2019 6:10PM

You forgot, you have to smear Mayo between the cables too. ** -- HokieSignGuy 06/17/2019 12:52PM

Well that explains it, I used mustard. Seriously, watch the video on -- IB4TECH 06/17/2019 12:58PM

Without watching it, I'm not imagining a scenario where it makes sense -- Tafkam Hokie 06/17/2019 1:53PM

Well, twisted pair reduces crosstalk between the pairs, but it doesn't -- jmanatVT 06/17/2019 2:00PM

Whoops, forgot residential CAT5 generally isn't shielded -- Tafkam Hokie 06/17/2019 2:04PM

What video? there are a bunch. ** -- HokieSignGuy 06/17/2019 1:38PM

FIOS is upload same as download is a major marketing -- HokieForever 06/17/2019 12:50PM

I'd disagree if it weren't for the fact that -- jmanatVT 06/17/2019 1:40PM

Oh if I could host something completely agree ** -- HokieForever 06/17/2019 1:41PM

Question looking for a problem.... -- HokieForever 06/17/2019 12:38PM

Was just curious if it was sufficient -- EDGEMAN 06/17/2019 12:40PM

Is the pron clear, if so, everything is good ** -- fordham 06/17/2019 2:06PM

As noted below.... -- HokieForever 06/17/2019 12:49PM

Good stuff. ** -- IB4TECH 06/17/2019 12:55PM

That way more than enough. You only need about 3.5 down to stream HD. ** -- hoosnowahokie 06/17/2019 12:44PM

Thanks! ** -- EDGEMAN 06/17/2019 12:47PM
