Your downloads will be limited by the server you are downloading from.


Again with this shite.

Yeah, I don't know why people can't imagine a use case different from their own. Just one torrent can saturate gigabit. Or, maybe you've cut the cord and your family of 5 are all streaming video at prime time and you don't want heavy browsing or downloading to cause buffering (nor do you want the streaming to impact your browsing).

There are countless legitimate ways to use gigabit in the home. Also, I think a lot of servers have fatter pipes than you think. Pretty much any decent site can saturate 100mbit easily, then you've got nothing left for concurrent use.

Are you single?
