How Much Internet Speed Do You Need for Multiple Users?

To determine the internet speed you should consider for four users, you’ll want to account for the activities each user typically engages in. Here’s a general guideline:

1. Casual Browsing/Streaming: If each user is mostly browsing the web or streaming videos, a speed of at least 25 Mbps per user is recommended.
   • Total Speed for 4 Users: 25 Mbps x 4 = 100 Mbps.
2. Gaming/Streaming: If the users are gaming or streaming in high-definition while browsing, you might want to aim for 50 Mbps per user.
   • Total Speed for 4 Users: 50 Mbps x 4 = 200 Mbps.
3. Heavy Usage and Multiple Devices: If there are multiple devices connected (smartphones, tablets, smart TVs) and heavy usage like video conferencing or working from home, consider 100 Mbps per user.
   • Total Speed for 4 Users: 100 Mbps x 4 = 400 Mbps.

In summary, depending on the usage patterns:

• For casual use, aim for 100 Mbps total.
• For heavy use or gaming, consider 200-400 Mbps total
