I'm asked this question a lot. "I don't need that much speed at home, I'm not surfing that much"
CityLink recently installed an Arbor Networks PeakFlow device. It allows us to be smarter about our connectivity.
Here is a 24 hour snap shot on just ONE application being used on our network.
NetFlix. 280Mb/s worth of traffic JUST FOR NETFLIX alone.
Users may not be "web surfing", but they are Channel Surfing. :)
It's all about the app(s)
