The FCC defines broadband, or high-speed internet, as a connection with download speeds of 25Mbps and upload speeds of 3Mbps. That threshold was established in 2015, however, and household internet demands have increased significantly since then, due largely to the rise of streaming and the abundance of smart devices in the home. By today’s standards, few would argue 25Mbps is “high speed.” The FCC has received pressure to raise the broadband threshold to download speeds of 100Mbps, so speeds of 100Mbps or higher could be considered high-speed internet.
