Over 95% of the people don't do anything of the sort (probably much closer to 100 than 95). The most common usage is 
tablets and phones going to Facebook, YouTube and Netflix. Regular consumers couldn't care less about anything else. If 
you think otherwise, you've (perhaps thankfully) spent too long away from your standard consumer).

Only have a 25 meg Internet service? Use a 5 MHz channel, not 160 MHz. 




So, if I use wireless to my, for example, Apple TV, I should limit the rate between my file server Mac and the Apple TV 
based on my Internet connection speed? 


I’m not certain that is reasonable.
