The one I just got recently was "My son says the internet is too slow,
All his friends have already downloaded the new Call of Duty Game, and
are playing it, and he's still waiting for it to download, and it says
it still has 5 hours left!"

That's true but I'm saying that customers won't understand you can
reduce it from 10h to 2h if you upgrade. Even if the few that
understand were aware, they wouldn't shell out the extra money.

True, the only thing they'll notice with large downloads is
that it says it's going to take 2 hours instead of 10 hours...
realistically, it's probably not going to make any difference,
since they'll just go to bed and it'll be done when they look
at it again either way.

believe it's a line - a few seconds and I can use it or
minutes/hours+ so they come back to it later.
Fiber company down here in Dayton started up and just got
their first condo/rental place. First customer was
yesterday. Gigabit speeds (even though the speed tests in
the video peaked out at 250 megs - probably our servers!)
The comment that stood out was $75 is too expensive.

I have serious doubts that most people could even tell
the difference between 10mbps and 50mbps without
running a speedtest (aside from large downloads)...
They just need to run speedtests constantly to make
sure their evil ISP isn't cheating them.

I am starting to hate the obsession with
speedtests. Recently we cut the burst from 100
MBytes to about 6 MBytes (actually 8 seconds
worth) at one tower while doubling everyone’s
sustained speeds. Previously this tower had Trango
APs and the highest burst speed you could get was
about 8 Mbps, but when we upgraded to 450 the
speedtests temporarily went to 30-50 Mbps.
Of course we got whining from people who saw their
speedtests drop to merely what they were paying
for. Didn’t matter that we doubled their sustained
speed, which is a huge deal for video streaming.
And that speeds are consistent even at peak usage
times. Plus a 6 MByte burst is enough that most
websites should still load at max speed available.
It’s like some people get Internet just to run
speedtests, rather than real traffic. Are some
people addicted to speedtest.net

Just got this… and yes this is my home internet
connection

I wonder what speed you need to get about the 85%
benchmark.

This was a speedtest taken by one of my customers
this morning. The thing that surprised me was the
85% number. I’m not sure of the source of the
data but if that’s correct, then there is a huge
opportunity that we all need to be looking at. In
this case, it’s a lowly Nanostation Loco M5 to an
older XM Rocket. Even though there is about 40
customers on it, it wasn’t under a lot of load
when this was taken. But the point is, 50Mbps is a
relatively easy number to hit with 802.11ac and it
also means, 85% of the country is where we need to
be competing.
