As more and more of us add smart devices in our home, everyone asks “How Much Internet Speed Do I Need”? Needs vary and depend on use and the device type. For example, streaming music and video and video cameras require more bandwidth than a light switch or smart door lock. The reason is the streaming content and cameras are using your bandwidth as long as you are streaming or the cameras are on whereas smart light switches and door locks send a short command and then are no longer using your bandwidth. There are 2 steps in calculating your Internet speed needs. The 1st is to determine your basic needs and then calculate your devices. HighSpeedInternet.com offers a brief quiz to determine your basic needs. To take the quiz, click here, https://www.highspeedinternet.com/how-much-internet-speed-do-i-need. Once you have determined your basic needs you need to calculate your smart devices, which we will cover next week. Please visit our website @ www.wbsouth.com.
