Internet speed shows how quickly data moves between your device and the internet. It’s measured in megabits per second (Mbps).
What’s a Megabit? #
A megabit is a small chunk of data. Imagine it like pouring water into a glass: the faster the flow (measured in Mbps), the quicker the glass fills. If your internet speed is 100 Mbps, your connection can handle 100 “chunks” of data every second.
Why Does Speed Matter? #
- Faster speeds let you load websites, download files, or stream shows more quickly.
- Slower speeds may cause buffering or delays, especially if many people are online at once.
How Much Speed (megabits) Do You Need? #
- 100–200 Mbps: Great for general use like browsing, emails, and streaming on a few devices.
- 500 Mbps: Ideal for families or homes with multiple users streaming, gaming, or working online.
- 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps): The ultimate speed for tech-savvy families and heavy internet users with lots of devices.
