    1 meg up. Who? Lots of people. Perhaps the majority of people in the US have very low upstream bandwidth. That amount is through the local cable company. AT&T here offers much less upstream than the cable company does. If you don’t live in a major population center you get slower internet. AT&T is supposed to be updating things around here finally. When I moved in here the best speed they could offer me was 3meg down 256 up. That was in 2022.

    Oh and I should probably clarify for you that 256 is .25 meg.
