In dilemma now, after bought the box, I think the bandwidth is not enough.
Currently on Unifi 5 Mb, but notice a lot of buffering when my wife is also streaming on her laptop. Even Astro on the Go also buffer, after I have been using it for so long.
Anyone else having the same issue?
it is and it is not.
5mbps = 625KBps.
that is the max, usually u get 500KBps.
plus, sometimes incoming is not stable.
lastly, orig unifi router is not the best, esp for WIFI.
sd or ahem hd streams need only 100-300KBps, so u should be OK for most if not all of them.
even when another user is drawing another 200KBps.
expect buffering, lagging, jerking when doing:
.. better larger hd streams that need >600KBps
.. sites that have geoblocks, poor servers or sites under attacks
.. another user downloading huge files, e.g. torrenting
there is currently an attractive offer to upgrade from vip5/vip10 to unifi30.
this will be useful:
.. multi users at anytime
.. smoother for HD streams
.. much faster torrenting or torrent based apps
