Was wondering just how worth it for my apartment it would be. I’m a nurse so will have 4 days off a week I like to stay busy but also like to play video games like ff14. Other than that i just stream Netflix, Hulu, max, and other videos. I don’t game competitively.

It’s $50 a month so nothing crazy, but still if it’s overkill and I can save some money then why not.

Also, I’m not sure what router I’d need to handle the speeds. If that’s gonna be pretty expensive then I’d rather stay around 500mbps even though the downloads would be rough

    Downloads won’t be rough at 500mbps

    You could theoretically download a 25gb 4k bluray movie in 7 minutes , then it would take 90 minutes to watch it

    Unlikely going to a gig would be any faster as you’d need a server capable of more

    I am a tech guy who lives alone and I pay for 35 for 200. Gig is available but it just wouldn’t make any difference beyond occasionally downloading a brand new 100gb video game. But I don’t do that often so an extra ten minutes is rather meaningless
