Internet Solutions (IS) provided a 5.2 Gigabit per second Internet service to gamers attending rAge 2014, and they made the most of it by burning through 100TB of data.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year we have seen record-breaking speeds and traffic volume in the IS-sponsored NAG LAN area at rAge,\u201d said Greg Montjoie, Executive for Connectivity at IS.<\/p>\n
\u201cTraffic downloads reached 99.64TB with 24.34TB uploaded over the three days of the expo. This is equivalent to each gamer having experienced the equivalent of a 100Mbps broadband service.\u201d<\/p>\n
But what did the 2,100 gamers at rAge do to consume 100TB of data, you may ask. \u201cPatches for both Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 topped the list, while the highest HTTP traffic came from EA, Playstation, Microsoft (Windows Updates and Xbox), Steam and Nvidia, AMD and ATi,\u201d said Montjoie.<\/p>\n
Last year IS sponsored a 1Gbps connection to the expo for the first time \u2013 setting the initial record for a LAN connection in Africa. The event saw a total of 21TB downloaded.<\/p>\n
