I used to subscribed to 800 mbps Celcom WiFi package.
Previously, I subscribed to 300 mbps package.
However, I don't see any difference at all. Gaming, stream porn, Youtube, Tiktok, live stream all can be done over 300 mbps and it is smooth.
Anyone regretted subscribing to 500 or 800 package where 300 mbps can do the job?

For gaming you are looking for latency not bandwidth

Heck, 100mbps should be more than enough unless household stay with family + heavy watch video usage

I ragrats
Even pay extra RM10 to get 500mbps, totally unstable and speed most of the time less than my previous 300mbps.
Maxis don't want to change the router also. And the top router also lousy one. Dunno how many years already.

depends on usage. if do heavy downloading the extra bandwidth is necessary but if TS do more streaming then you dont fully utilize the 800 mbps. so downgrade to 300mbps will be the correct move.
at home I have 5 users sharing the connection so my 500mbps is sufficient and fully utilized.

gaming is more towards latency la. Cos need exchange data in real time
Streaming/browsing is the connection speed, 300mbps is more than enough to view 4k video.
Anything above 300 is for NAS, at that point upload speed more important than download.
If u want smooth gaming better to invest some $$ for vpn. exitlag works really great the last time i used. support most online games. Easy to use and not expensive. cheapest is to create new account and then sapu the annual package during black friday. Those black friday deals only work on new account, so need register every year.
That's my 2sen la as plebian.
