I understand, but I was referring to the average home internet
connection. But even for work 100Mbps seems a bit overkill for most
purposes. Whole offices work fine with a "mere" bonded T1 at 10Mbps.
Admitted it's symmetrical and is more stable. But regarding speed it's
quite a bit slower than the mentioned 100Mbps home internet.
