The Upload Speed Problem
Most internet providers advertise download speeds prominently while burying upload speeds. Here's why that matters for remote workers.
What Uses Upload Speed
- Video calls: Zoom, Teams, and Meet all need strong upload for your video and audio - **Cloud backups**: iCloud, Google Drive, and Dropbox rely on upload speed - **File sharing**: Sending large documents, presentations, and designs - **Screen sharing**: Presenting in meetings requires consistent upload bandwidth
Cable vs Fiber Upload
| Task | Cable (35 Mbps up) | Foam Fiber (1 Gbps up) | |------|-------------------|----------------------| | Upload 1GB file | 4 minutes | 8 seconds | | Zoom call quality | 720p, may stutter | 4K, rock solid | | iCloud backup (50GB) | 3+ hours | 7 minutes |
The Solution
Foam's symmetrical fiber gives you upload speeds that match your download. No more frozen video calls or overnight backups.
