200 Mb fiber is a capable speed to stream movies and even do gaming to multiple devices. But that’s from the internet providers modem/router out to the internet, what happens inside your home, your network can have speeds of 5Mb (or even no network service) to 10Gb, which your internet provider doesn’t guarantee. Also to watch out for with these slower network speeds are the data caps. The higher speed options, usually come with unlimited data whereas the slower speed options cap your data, and if you consume more data than what you pay for, you can either get shutdown for the remainder of the month (dish network), or your speeds can drop until the end of the month all while you get charged a pretty healthy fee for going over the allocated data cap.
