Slow Evening Speeds?

This seems to be a common topic amongst many people, but I'm not sure the obvious is being seen: Streaming in general puts an extrememly heavy and continuous demand for bandwidth on any internet backbone, let alone a limited bandwidth satellite system... in space.

 

Considering the relatively high latency that comes with the science of doing satellite communications, users need to think about the impact of so many people trying to stream at will at the same time, and how that's affecting the performance they see - not to mention the performance others on the same beam/outroute see.

 

I don't stream on satellite, so don't @ me. Just my 2p, er ¢.

Yep, not discounting anything -- we shall see what the fix for Bean 68 brings and move on from there.

Think your's is also complicated somewhat by a strange wifi issue. I wouldn't discount that either.
