    Internet Provider Q&A?


    I have 2 choices of Internet Providers and want everyone's best suggestions. I can either chose Windstream with 10 Meg or Hughs Net with 15 Meg. Hughs Net is 3 times more expensive. Whom would you chose?

    I've never used windstream but we have hughs net down on the farm and I like it better than the Internet we have at our house. Even over wifi instead of plugged right into the router it's better

    Really it all comes down to MBPerS with any internet more is better but more than you need is a waste if that makes sense so if you could find out roughly what the game servers are pumping out you can plan accordingly

    I had 15mb Hughes Net when I lived in Oklahoma. I tried to race multiplayer in forza 5 & my buddy said I was glitching all over the track. I would not reccomend it.

    I am not familiar with either of those providers as i am in the UK but my suggestion would be this

    try do a little homework in your immediate area (the area opperating on the same line as yourself) and gather some info - lag, speed at peak and off peak etc

    then see which is the most popular of the 2.... if the 15meg is the most popular and has a shit ton of people using it then the additional 5meg you get wont make a blind bit of difference as the traffic is high

    Going along with spray there has to be other gamers in your area that had to make the same choice as you and put the experiences up in review form. If Hugh's has okay internet but their customer service is like pulling teeth from an alligator I'd take the speed hit. Honestly I can't see 5mbps making a world of difference. The ISPs in my area go 5, 10, 30, or if your mister money bags 50-100.

    The upload is the most important, you need at least 5 mbps upload speed to be able to game ...your download speed can be 10 or 15 mbps and you will be fine ...

    Both are satellite based, correct? Get back to me and let me know what you find out.
