The most important information in your broadband IP contract is the phrase "speeds of up to". A base horizon of 25Mb/s is more than adequate for most home and small office users with four year old or newer computers. I pay exorbitantly for speeds 100Mb/s to 150Mb/s, but connection speeds rarely exceed 72Mb/s. Also a particular connection speed is not the same as your IP's ceiling. As I write this I am only at 52Mb/s, however my signal is going ten thousand miles or so round trip. For comparison most US LTE's are between 7 and 17Mb/s, and TWC broadband IP base is around 17Mb/s. Go to your IP's homepage and check that connection speed. Chances are it will be what you pay for. Again, actual connection speeds involve a multiplicity of variables. With video, TV, etc. speeds slow because of bandwidth limitations which is entirely another issue involving both your computer, your IP's server, and any other connected servers, (why netflix, amazon, and you tube are sometimes dog slow). High traffic, high bandwidth usage, slower connection speeds.
