What you need to know about 100 Mbps
A 100 Megabits per second connection is classified as 'fast internet' by most regulatory agencies. It provides enough bandwidth for the average family household to function smoothly, assuming the bandwidth is divided properly.
Is it good for gaming?
Absolutely. Most multiplayer gaming only requires about 3-5 Mbps of consistent connection. The main benefit of a 100 Mbps line is the speed at which you can download games and large seasonal updates. A 50 GB game will take around 1 hour and 15 minutes to download.
