Would appreciate greatly if you could help me fill in the short poll!

    I have AT&T U-verse and it's not bad. We haven't randomly dropped connection ever since we switched from Charter Communications.

  • Oh well, I guess my ISP is awesome.
    Good luck on your project, interested to see more of it!

    • Where do you live? Who cares?
    • How often do you download (not stream, eg Youtube) large files > 100MB? Are a few GBs per day enough for you?
    • What is your subscribed internet speed at home? Please give in bits per second. 100 Mbps
    • Among your large-sized downloads, most are from... (an estimate will do)? From everywhere around the world, China, Japan, EU, US and etc...
    • Across your international downloads, what's your download speed like? Max
    • Do you know of an international bandwidth cap by your ISP? No caps.
