I'm just looking for a suitable DSL contract. Now I have found two contracts from Vodafone Unitymedia on the Check 24 forum. One is the "Red Internet & Phone 100 Cable" and "Red Internet & Phone 50 Cable". One with 100 Mbit / s download and 10 Mbit / s upload and the other with 50 Mbit / s and 5 Mbit / s.
I live alone and use the Internet for university (online lecture, downloading lecture data, uploading homework, etc.), as well as for various streaming services and social media platforms (Youtube, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Reddit). I also have a PS3 that I would use to play games like COD etc online. In my 1 person household there are the following 3 devices: my laptop, my PS3 and my smartphone.
Now I have found various information online about my personal Mbit / s needs.
When extrapolated, the two contracts (including bonuses / credits) only differ by around 40 euro over a 24-month period. However, the 50 Mbit / s remains constant at 19.99 euro per month and the 100 Mbit / s at 19.99 euro (months 1-6) and then 34.99 euro (7-24). The contract period is 24 months.
At 50 Mbit / s you get a credit of 120 euro (paid out). At 100 Mbit / s both 190 euro (paid) and 120 euro (billed in monthly installments).
Which one would you recommend to me?
For only 1.70 euro per month More (40 euro from 2 years) I would take the 100. The 50s would be enough, game downloads will take a little longer.
Thank you already. Unfortunately I have calculated the difference, the difference is 79.92 over 2 years, i.e. Around 3.33 EUR difference per month
Against this background (and my needs), would you recommend the 100 or rather the 50?

Uploading is the right keyword. 5 Mbit / s are simply too weak for that!
i would recommend magenta at home M from telekom. You have your 20 euro for 10 months and then 40. And the good thing. In addition to 100 Mbit / s download, you have 50 Mbit / s upload.
Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately the Magenta ZuHause M is not offered in my residential area: //
Do you need to know how much faster downloads are worth to you. The 50 tariff is also enough for you.
If you want to upload something to the network more often, e.g. YouTube videos, then you should definitely take the faster one, because 5 Mbit / s upload is really very little if you often have to upload something larger.
Okay, that's strange, because normally the telekom can get (almost) everywhere… Unless you are one of the few households that only has cables.
