25 Mbps is plenty for 1080p60 even for real-time video. Latency is more important. GFN says they can even cram 2560x1600 at 120 FPS into 35 Mbps.



Ultra-low latency is important, but zero packet loss and low jitter is even more important.

I have "on paper" great internet in the SF Bay Area (Monkeybrains), and while I can get 600mpbs symmetrical throughput, the jitter and 0.5% average packet loss (it's a microwave mesh network), game streaming is completely unplayable.
