Of course no one was speaking to me directly; if they were then they would use something other than a public forum. Since they *did* use the public forum they must have been speaking to any of the members who have an interest in the topic. I am a member, I have an interest, and so I asked a question.
Before I go and purchase the equipment to wire my house I would like to know why I might need it. It is far too easy to advertise/promote services and products on here that the average person just doesn't need. If I have a question about why I would need this then you can be sure many others on here have that same question. Before any of us go out and spend the money it makes sense to find out why it is necessary.
You shouldn't need to wander around my house to explain why I need more bandwidth. Two televisions streaming, multiple smart devices, only one camera, and two or three tablets/laptops using the internet simultaneously doesn't tax the 75Mbps WAN / Xfinity Wifi LAN setup I have. If more bandwidth is needed then it is for an application or a device or a pattern of usage beyond that. What is it that some of us might choose to utilize in the future that would require that extra bandwidth and additional equipment.
Multiple cameras streaming to the cloud might be an answer - some of us might do that. Multiple cameras streaming to an in-home NAS could also be an answer though I imagine fewer would have the NAS. Some gaming systems would be a hobby that some would have and could use the bandwidth.
Before I need to know what equipment to buy to get 1.2Gb bandwidth to my bedroom I need to know why that bandwidth is important to me.
