Given the fact you said 5Gbps should be standard for the list of Devices/Services you then listed just proves you know little to nothing about the subject.
I meet people like you on a daily basis, you’re speed hungry because you listen to a vocal minority who claim everyone needs those kind of Broadband Speeds when in reality the Speeds/Packages they pay for they don’t even need. But it’s your money, spend it how you see fit.
Ok. If you say so please bring me calculation for :
4x4k@60fps upload streams + 5 devices watching 1440p and up streams , 6 phones, and various smart devices at home . Please dont tell me that 76/18 is enough or you will look dumb. It needs to be around 1Gbps to use things freely .
Standart is standart , tech is just envolving and there is nothing you can do about it. And next time leave your nasty comments for yourself . There was question and there wasn't a single answer just talking arround the topic. That's it.
Need to correct you there, you said 5Gbps.
Pcs come with 2.5Gb ethernet ports these days pci cards can go up to 40gb.
On subject of 5gb/s connection of cause it would handy to have for some people. As someone who downloads lot games getting them that bit faster always something I would like same with torrents. Games can be 200gb region these days and whole TV series in 4k can near a tb. So yeah definitely usage for such connection.
1st , let's say theoretically 5 GBP port router cost between 100-300 it's up to user.
Broadband prices are variable for some reason they are very very high here and there BUT it depends on costs of setup that area .
It should not be super expensive , even more there should be option to use companies router or your own .
Just for example country where I was born 1Gbps + TV cost average 8-12 Euros per month 10Gbps you can get for 49.99 EUR - altho that speed is more for some specific usage .
Openreach will be moving to XPON over the next couple of years enabling 10Gb.
You can already use your own router with FTTP.
Digital voice is another matter, you need to use the BT hub for that. The alternative is ditch digital voice and if you need a home line use another VoIP supplier.
The choice is there, all you have to do is use it.
Yes yes, only first have to wait for that choice to be possible.
For now Good old Phone Copper lines are future for next 5-10 years I guess.
