3mbps internet speed worth getting? - Tim - 04-16-2014 02:25 PM
im gonna have to get the economy plus internet from comcast (3mbps) to save money. i like to play games online via my ps3, will this internet be too slow to play games online?

No it wont be too slow.
It will be like a SNAIL CRAWLING.
Plus READ all the terms and conditions - gaming will QUICKLY use up broadband allowances, most gamers choose FAST unlimited packages for a reason.

It's not painfully slow, but it is not fast at all either, and is well below your average ISP speeds.
I have Verizon FIOS with TV, phone, Internet...basic package...25 mbps down/5 mbps up.
If I were to pay $40 per month more (which is ridiculously expensive), I'd have 40 mbps down...not sure what the upload would be.
Comcast is never great for high bandwidth stuff.

3MBPS Speed Is Sufficient To Play Games Online Via PS3.

I feel that is way slow for playing games.
I have 24 Mbps unlimited usage.
