Shared Internet Connection, or What does that mean 1:1 Connection or
1:4 Connection?
Home Broadband Connection is shared one, that's why it costs lowerer.
It means that your Connection speed vary according to number of
simultaneous users.
If you see a contention ratio of, say, 1:4, this means that 8
subscribers share that 1 Mbps of bandwidth.
Business packages often have lower contention ratios or even 1:1,
because it is essential to them that they have a continually fast
service.

This is the speed per second at which you can download information
(eg a webpage, a song, a film or a pdf) to your computer. Broadband
download speeds vary from 512kb to more (1Mb, or 1Megabit per
second, is 1024 kb, or 1024 kilobits per second, so you can see the
wide variation in download speeds). In practice, the speed you
receive is depend on many factors, including the contention ratio
and your distance from your local Tower– you will notice that most
providers offering higher download speeds will say that the higher
speed is “up to 8MB” or “up to 24Mb” as they cannot guarantee the
top speed.
Download speed refers to how quickly you can download something, the
download allowance refers to how much you are allowed to download in
a given timespan. Some give specific usage limits such as 1GB, or
1Gig, which is equivalent to 1024 Megabytes (or 1024Mb). Many
broadband providers advertise unlimited download allowances on some
of their broadband packages - however these will nearly always come
with a fair usage policy.

12. Why does my high speed package
seems a little slow?
If your higher-speed package is slower than it should be, verify
that no other application, such as a peer-to-peer sharing software,
is slowing down your experience. If you use a Wi-Fi router, check
that it’s protected with a password and that no intruders are using
it. Also verify that your PC or connected device is close to the
router.
You may also check your broadband speed. For Checking, connect your
computer directly to LAN interface of your CPE.
As is the practice with most ISPs around the world, the speed to
which you have subscribed to is an ‘up to’ speed, meaning that at
peak times it might be slower. The service is also asymmetric, which
means that the upload and download speeds are different. The
download speed is the higher of the two and represents the speed at
which you can receive data from the internet. The upload speed is
the speed at which you can send data to the internet. The download
speed is the one mentioned in your subscription.
