  • 2. How do I select different speeds based on my Internet usage?

    Based on our research, we can provide a general guideline for customers to select the right internet speed. However due to the complexity of each customer’s home network status, we cannot tell you with absolute certainty which speed to choose. Please bear in mind, this is an educated guess based on your needs and home environment. Generally speaking, we always recommend customers to select higher speed as often as possible if it is within their budget to get the best performance.

    As a rule of thumb, you can select your speed, based on the number of people using the internet in the same household. Below is a table for speed tiers linked with family size and usage.

    Tier Speed Range Typical Speed Family Size & Average App Usage Daily Data Usage (During Peak Hours)
    Tier 1 up to 30M 15M, 25M, 30M 1 person with light usage, no HD video stream, emailing and light browsing. 3GB
    Tier 2 31M-99M 50M, 60M, 75M 1 person with 1 HD video stream, emailing, and moderate browsing/usage 6GB
    Tier 3 100M-199M 100M, 150M 2 people normal usage with 2 HD video streams and/or moderate browsing 12GB
    Tier 4 200M-499M 200M, 300M, 400M 3-4 people with normal usage with 2 HD video streams and/or online gaming 36GB
    Tier 5 500M-1000M 500M, 600M, 800M, 1000M 3-4 people with heavy usage/multiple HD video streams and/or online gaming 60GB

    Depending on each customer’s home network situation, if you have more than 5 people in a household with 15M speed or just 1 person, you may feel slow internet speeds.

    Another way to estimate the speed required for residential usage is based on peak hour usage as most residential customers use internet the most in the evening between 6:00pm to 12:00am.

    Keep in mind, when your actual usage exceeds the recommended usage for that speed tier, your internet would not necessarily feel slower or slow down, as tiers for the recommended usage are based on our statistical analysis to get the best experience.
