    It’s easily got to the point where home broadband is not the limiting factor. We are a home of 2 people and our 500Mbps is more than sufficient.

    At work we found that people’s home WiFi is way more limiting than the incoming connection.

      My company is remote first and I work with so many people who despite having fantastic speeds at the demarcation point rely on connecting from a shitty AP three stories and 8 walls away.

      The first thing I did when getting FttP is run Ethernet from the router to my computer.

      I fully expect people to sign up for this, then realise that their internal networking is only gigabit.
      Thoughts and prayers for the firstline helpdesk people. We’re 110/20, and it only really tanks when someone is downloading from steam (and I’ve turned off QoS).
