Is 200 Mbps Fast?
You’ll have more than enough speed to stream your favorite music, shows, and movies with 200 Mbps internet service. Symmetrical speeds will ensure fast online gaming, hassle-free file sharing, and clear VoIP or video (like Skype) calls with colleagues or loved ones.
Speeds of up to 200 Mbps are perfect for:
- Emailing large files
- Seamless gaming
- Rapid HD video downloads
- Video conferencing
- Transferring large files
What Internet Speed Should I Select?
Shopping for broadband services involves more than comparing internet service providers. You also need to figure out how much internet speed your home or business uses. Determining this before you buy means you can choose an internet connection that gets the job done—without paying for speeds you won’t use.
You get equal upload and download speeds with FiOS, while traditional high-speed internet connections typically have slower upload speeds. Not sure what the difference is? Download speeds are used for streaming. Upload speeds are used for sending files. Some activities, like video conferencing or online gaming, use both.
Estimate your bandwidth needs by considering the number of simultaneous users, activities, the bandwidth needed per activity, and the total bandwidth needed to do all those activities at the same time. Check out this resource for more information and a handy worksheet.
