Never going to work well. Limited bandwidth on WiFi. 20 users all trying to stream HD videos is probably in the region of 100mbs.

I've got unlimited data on everything and use my phone as a hotspot. Works brilliant 99.9% of the time

A very old thread, , BUT , although we are members of both Big clubs, never bothered about Internet connection. Just me though Mrs H moans no connection then just reads her Kindle.

Only once used the free club WiFi at Honiton.
Discovered if you use a VPN it doesn't see you and you get premium WiFi.

Probably? You need around 3-4Mb/s for SD (720p), around 6Mb/s for 1080p HD, but if we are talking 4K or UHD (oh yes they do!) you are looking at 25-35Mb/s. A gigabit feed for 1080p would satisfy maybe about 150 users, but only a few dozen at 4K.

For the record you will note that fibre rates are said as one gigabit but when you look at the quoted supply rate it is usually 900Mb/s. This is because 1K is actually 1024 bits/sec, 1M is 1024x1024 bits/s and 1G is 1024x1024x1024 or just under 1074,000,000 bits/sec. 900Mb is just short of 950,000,000 bits/sec leaving some overhead for monitoring systems and seller exaggeration, etc

That similar to our seasonal site they have upgraded there WIFI system you can still get a free basic wifi , and if you want more a premium on PAYG .
