Visitor Question or Comment:

Hello, they offered me 8mbps of internet, the question is, is it a good speed? Is it good for 3 connected devices? With that speed can I play online and download without problems?

Response from ALEGSA.com.ar:

Yes, 8 mbps (badly called 8 «mega») download speed is very good for your internet connection.

In general, it will serve you for online games and for multiple devices. To watch YouTube videos in HD even.

To give you an idea, 8 mbps is equivalent to downloading 1 megabyte of data per second.
