Frequently Asked Questions
A good home Internet speed provides at least 25 Mbps download speed and 3 Mbps upload speed. However, we recommend a starting download speed of 100 Mbps for households with several users connected on multiple devices at the same time, so that you can surf, stream, game and make video calls. The more speed you have, the faster your connection. Spectrum Internet has fast starting speeds of up to 300 Mbps (wireless speeds may vary) with no data caps.
The best download and upload speed for your home depends on how your household uses the Internet, especially during peak times. We recommend a minimum starting download speed of 100 Mbps, and an upload speed of at least 10 Mbps. However, if multiple people in your home regularly perform high-bandwidth activities simultaneously – such as 4K streaming, video calls and large file transfers – you may want an Internet plan with faster download and upload speeds. Spectrum Internet offers plans from up to 300 Mbps to 1 Gig. This article about good download and upload speeds can help you determine which speeds are right for your household.
The following factors can cause slow upload speeds:
- Outdated computer and/or software
- Walls, radios and appliances can interfere with WiFi signals
- Multiple devices connected to your home WiFi network simultaneously
- Distance between your WiFi router and your device
- Using several apps at the same time
