Re: Do you actually need very fast broadband speeds?
I run a Plex server (free to users of course) alongside the normal needs of a family of four adults, with streaming, gaming, downloading going on at the same time. I have a symmetrical 900Mb with Vodafone/City Fibre. I dedicate a maximum of 600Mb upstream to my server. On quite a few occasions a full 500Mb has been used when a lot of clients are streaming at between 11MB and 25Mb each. So for me, high speed is essential if only to obtain the 900Mb upstream.
