Virgin Media 1Gbit lines

Mine was upgraded yesterday and I can get a new router by Tuesday.
The Price rises by £22 to £62 for gigabit internet, roughly 100 megabytes down but the upload is still 5MB.

If the upload doubled too then I would have jumped on it, after all 10MB up is faster than a lot of web servers out there. It's a shame, I really would have liked 10MB uploads.

So typically your Download speed would be: 800Mbps
Upload Speed would be: 80Mbps

(Typically your Upload speed will always be 10% of your download speed)

While you may have a faster Download stream, you will never get the upload stream of the T connection.
For example my server will average at around 500Mbps (So for you that is 62.5MB)
My Upload stream though will actually peak at around 600Mbps (That's 75MB)

The upload stream on Servers / Connection cannot be limited as technically they very rarely download (Updates / patches etc) everything is upstream.

When you request a web page from the Server, you are Downloading, the Server is Uploading.

Goods speeds though, should be great for torrents

I'd love 10:1 at least I'd get 10MB up, it's not really a big ask. It's the norm.

I don't see why the day to day user would require anything more than 10% to upload, unless you are sharing illegal content / movies etc
then i don't see how a normal user could exceed this.
Even if you had an offsite backup, yours downloading it it and not uploading.
Your uploading would be done overnight / triggle upload or incremental anyway.

Unless you have a big ass 4k Porn Collection you need to keep uploading haha
