Bandwidth needs to improve.
A yes from me, good application!
Unfortunately, I cannot support the application with the current bandwidth 7Mbps up and 30 Mbps down is too slow.
If this can be raised to meet the minimum recommended spec then I would happily support your application.
Excellent applicant.
I also think his/her commitment to more bandwidth has to be up’d
Can you upgrade your bandwith?
