Serious.  Pls no troll.  I will.delete.

Now i subscribe unifi 100mb RM129 per month.

Just now i read one ada by maxis Fibre.  The package is  30mb + free 60 channels astro only RM99 per month.

Really tempting.

But i want to know first is there much different on speed between 30mb and 100mb?

Normal daily usage no difference. However, if you download game a lot from Steam, Origin, Epic, Uplay then there are a huge different between them. 30Mbps will take ages to download a 100GB file.

Even if u have only 4 family member c s per household, 100mbps may not enough. U need about 300mbps as seet spot. Why?

MMORPG games, mobile legend etc no need high speed, it just need good latency. 3Mbps also can play. So rule out that.

Each 4k/HDR stream already 15-20mbps. If few smart tv, it will double.
PS4 download games also need some mbps same like 4k.
If use wireless cctv- it will eat some mbps too.
Then few phone, PC, tablet etc.
Current new normal meeting using webex etc also need data.

Normal modern urban household may need more than 100mbps. 300mbps
There is a reason why cheap router & most devices speed is about 300mbps.

Do you download PS4 games 24 hours a day? Nope.
Wireless CCTV doesn't each so much mbps. Quite negligible.
The only issue i see is the streaming services, for 4K streaming you need at least 25~30mbps. But you can easily download the shows first while you sleep. Don't tell me there are 4 tvs streaming 4K concurrently.
Most households don't spend so much time at home during the noon and most internet provider has the most stable and fastest speed during that time.
Current new normal - let's use Google Meet as basis, it only needs about 3~4 mbps for meeting up to 6 people.
So yeah, if your household is like less than 5~4 people. 100mbps is more than enough for an ordinary family.
Unless the 4 of you are tech-crazy, uploading twitch, uploading youtube etc etc. That's a different story.

But of course, if you have extra money to splurge, more is better right? For any other ordinary family, you don't really need to spend more than for something that you might not utilize fully.

I am telling about sweet point where optimum most wireless devices can get (point where max most device speed=ISP internet speed). It should be around 300mbps.
Of course U can use 30mbps or 100mbps, but u will not use it with full potential.
Netflix already suggest that u need 25mbps for 4k/HDR. If normal 4 person per family. There also 2 smart Tv per family. This already consume 50mbps.
If u have other smart device CCTV, smart phone, gaming; 100mbps surely will get bottleneck.

In 2019, even if we get average of 11mbps per mobile device, most Malaysian user also not satisfied. Most operator around the world push it to be more 20mbps per device. If 4 person, then u need about 80mbps.
Yes u can stream online or meeting with Standard definition video. However, the world have move forward, 4K quality is new normal.
More & more electrical appliance will use internet or wifi.

I am telling u about global trend. Buy any cheap router, cheap phone also speed about 300mbps.

TS, you do the math. Say if you want to download 1Tb of prawn which one faster? 30mbps or 100mbps?

If you watching stream unless 4k or 8k, you prob wont see difference.

Maxis fibre? Dont change, the last time I used Maxis fibre the ping was like in thousands, since they are sharing with Astro the streaming will be extremly unstable, gaming can be unplaybale at times due to high ping
