Twice in the past few weeks I've had prospective customers say they needed a minimum of 20M/5M per company IT dept to work from home, emphasis on the 5M upstream.
This is a lot more than I've heard in the past, and seems high to me. In many cases even in town on cable Internet, they will need at least a plan with at least 50M download to get that much upload. My experience in the past has been that even our 3M/1M plan is actually sufficient for most people to work from home (assuming they aren't contending with the rest of the family trying to watch Netflix and Youtube). Is this some kind of a trend, people needing that much upstream to work from home? Or just a coincidence I've had 2 requests like that in as many weeks.
