[QUOTE="ncurd, post: 1130244, member: 72205"] Nobody and and no tech spec gets it right on what you need. It's just not how telecoms works. There are tons of various limiting factors on what you need. Varying in packetsize, interframe gaps, overheads of OSI Layers. Simply put the data your are downloading might be 1MB but it takes greater than 1MB of data transfered between your and where you obtaining it from. I've spent a great deal of my life working on limited bandwidth networks. Just getting the BBC homepage to load is far greater effort than you think. When you think since mid-2000's just about everything incoperates video. You definitely need to be able to stream it. The idea of a purely text and static based Internet is laughably old fashioned.
