Where I live in Canada everyone thinks they need gigabit internet. My internet sales person was so sure that I needed at least 1 gig internet because I work from home and have a couple of people using YouTube at the same time . But I haven't had a single issue with my 500 megabit internet . That was the lowest I could go , probably would of been fine with 200 - 300 .
