i have a freeDNS site that i use to keep track of my home IP address so I can connect directly to my pc. I use UPnPlay on my android devices and windows media player on my laptop to connect to my pc and stream my videos.

so you would say 6 would be kinda marginal and prone to buffering?
As soon as you add another device, yes. If you have absolutely nothing else using bandwidth and your speed is consistent you shouldn't have issues.

Remember: Advertised internet speeds are rarely achieved on a consistent basis. The extra $15 a month should be well worth the cost.
Also as mentioned above, check your wireless speed and ensure you have "N".
P.S. Some websites switch from HD to SD automatically to minimize buffering.

this. also depends on where you are located, how old your house is, and who else is on at the same time.
I would pay extra for the fast.
If AT&T is DSL, you will be more likely to get close to 6 than with cable. The only variable is how old is the building. I had my previous house re-wired (paid the installer $50/cash to do it) and it doubled my speed.

You also need to remember that whatever you purchase you are also not going to get the max. in example, I have 20mpbs, just ran a scan and hit 18.5. I would say minimum to purchase for largely uninterrupted HD streaming would be 8.

Are these really the options in BR?
I'm pretty sure the slowest you can get in NJ is 30mpbs.
I pay a reasonable price for 75/75 with Fios.

Cox has up to 100/30 Mbps I believe.

Uverse offers higher speeds, but not at my address. My old apartment had far better Uverse service available.

dammit I was going to stop by my ATT store and ask about Uverse and ask about my service since I have FTTH. I am still paying full price for my Cox too. 
shame on me.
