    I am internet shopping and need some bandwidth advice.


    Win VER :22H2

    I'm thinking of dumping Xfinity internet and going with Fidium fiber internet.
    I have my basic computer, Apple TV streaming box, a Roku, two iPads, two iPhones, and Alexa and a bunch of other things that each dip their beak into my bandwidth. I play Battlefield 1 & 4, wife plays words with friends.
    The main draw is Battlefield and TV streaming. FYI, BF1 on local servers I ping at around 25 +/-

    So Fidium offers:
    100 mbps, 300, 1 gig, 2 gigs.
    What do I need for reliable service?
    Thanks in advance!

    Its often down to price 2 gig is best but 300 meg should cover most needs unless you all use at the same time often for gaming ping is important

    Don't know about your area but a subdivision in mine had fiber run to the property but only to a terminal device, didn't change the wire going to houses. It did provide better bandwidth.

    With all that stuff using your bandwidth go for 1GB minimum.
    Ofc, 2GB would be better.
