The official tablet (and other useless electronics) thread!

The camera and doorbell system are LAN, aren't they? If so, irrelevant towards your internet speeds. Even if you were to check them from outside of your network, that would mean you weren't home and therefore, not using the internet connection.

Leave it as is, 500 down is plenty. As i said in the other thread, i have two streams of Directvnow and/or netflix going on at the same time, with Toni and I both surfing the web on laptops or phone and have no issues at 60down. Hell, i even host a plex server that friends access and have seen them doing that at the same time and been fine. Save yourself the money and stay at 500.

Nah the ones I would have to get would all connect wirelessly. Due to the way my house / attic is built (and the fact it was a spec home so I couldn't have them build in conduits or pull wire before the drywall got closed up) I pretty much have to go this route unless I wanted to tear my home apart.

That settles it, the MM tribe has spoken, I will be content with my current earth-shattering speeds

That's still LAN, albeit WLAN, they won't affect your internet speeds. Your access point/router on the other hand, may need an upgrade once that is in since the poor little processor directing traffic may just freak out with all those devices.
