What Internet Speed Do I Need?

[Dimitri Muskens]

The actual sessions are p2p.

The app/program 'phones home' to enable the service to work. Your audio/video doesn't touch the US jkz servers.

Your internet connection needs to be solid, also the upload stream, but nothing crazy. 25/25 should work when you're not sharing bandwidth with a household chatting/gaming/videoconferencing at the same time.

Testserver unavailable is a known issue. Don't loose sleep over it.

Getting your gear latency down (drivers!) and having a 'clean' network and internet hookup is paramount. Where low jitter is more important than high speed.

This is what I had assumed / hoped about how p2p was setup. That's good news.

I have 110 speeds down but only 11 up right now with my service provider. Is your feeling that 11 up is a problem? I do face some challenges in cutting off the rest of my household from the network (home office and college kids home while school is out).

My computer latency is in decent shape but I'll continue to try to tweak it to get better performance.

Not a problem as such.
You will be able to tell when 'the household' is asking 'to much' and causing 'noise' on your connection. The jitter que is the first to go up and start adding latency. Mind you, unless you spend big bucks it will never be perfect. Enjoy!
