You may be pretty happy with your 10 Mbps downloads and 2 Mbps uploads but do you realize that your smart phone can capture more mb in a second as a photo, while it will take you a couple of minutes to attach and upload it in the same size.
Whether you have pondered over this or not, but if you have ever been dissatisfied with your internet because it was really slow or lagging despite having an 'x' Mbps download plan, we'd recommend you check your internet usage patterns, test your current upload/download speeds and rather switch to symmetric internet speeds in order to save your precious time and be more efficient.
Need for Symmetrical Speed
Clearly, the need of the hour is symmetrical speed i.e. equal download and upload speeds. People who are hooked on to social media, online gaming or media streaming, are increasingly becoming aware of critical upload speeds. On the contrary, businesses have already started switching to Fiber Network not only due to greater bandwidth but due to symmetric speeds.
Digital India's biggest advantage has been the creation of new-age jobs - Candid Movie Makers, Photographers, YouTubers, Instagrammers, Bloggers, and Freelancers. The common thread connecting all these jobs is 'high-speed internet'. And not just high speed, but, symmetrically high speed. Today, a single high resolution image file can go up to 30mb in size and uploading an album, may take hours together. This implies that even if you can watch live streams at lightning fast speed, you might end up working at snail's pace while uploading content.
Understanding broadband technology and internet speeds can be complicated for a layman, it is always advisable to choose wisely an internet connection which is your best match. This way you will have a better understanding of what it is that you are paying for and why.
Today, securing a fast internet connection isn't enough, finding an internet connection with symmetrical upload/download speeds is the real deal. The demand for higher upload speeds is greater than ever, yet it continues to be only a fraction of all internet traffic. Since this demand is here to only increase every quarter, the million dollar question is, have you realized your dependency on upload speed yet?
