Is 1Mbps down/256kbps up fast enough to watch streaming videos online?

Question

...or would it be worth it to go for 3 Mbps down/ 768 kbps up, which is about $10 more per month.

Answer 1

Is this really a serious question or do you want to show off your fast download and upload speed.

Instead of asking you could just have tried to play a streaming video.

You would have noticed, that it is more than fast enough

We are here to answer questions, but you are asking, before having tried it your self.

Answer 2

more than fast enough.  Not fast if you wanted to push one out but very fast to watch.  A T1 is 1.5 mbs

Answer 3

Normally your video should tell you the bitrate. If you compare that to your internet connection, then it should give you an idea, it will also come down to their servers too.

Hope this helps you in your quest

Answer 4

/f m yes that is good enough to watch video and it really fast as well.
