Best internet for this game?

Yeah I don’t think this is a question for the forums. There are way too many variables, like what kinds of internet you can even get in your area, and what kind of plan you can afford. You should probably ask your service provider about upgrading or something.

Satellite in my area doesn't do GBs only MBs and KBs. It's also the only internet provider where I live.

1.5 is probably your GB/s. You dont need internet at all for the game as long as you have it downloaded already. 1.5 is probably your DL speed, which isn't great, but if your not using any other internet at the time then it should still DL just fine. Sometimes if you are able to plug it into Ethernet it can go a little bit faster. But there is no "good/right internet" for the sims.

Yeah no. If OP has satellite they’re getting 100 Mbps at best probably.

Make sure you don't have anything else eating up your internet like other downloads, streaming, being on youtube.

How much is it running at night per second with your download when you look into origin? When I had very slow internet it was in the KB area and that was pretty bad, but at the time AT&T pretty much did false advertisement to how fast their internet was even though I was paying out more for more faster internet.

Go to speedtest.net to check what your internet speed is by running a quick test. Just click on go.

I have Spectrum and luckily was able to get it in my area and it's been 4x the speed my old internet use to be or claimed it was.

Sounds like OP might be on a 1.5 mb/s connection, which is pretty awful this day and age and a nightmare for downloading content. No way is it 1.5 gb/s with those DL times.

Then no problem your speed

Sounds like they simply just want to download patches much faster.

I just got a hotspot to do some light online gaming and downloading the recent pack used up 1.62 GB of my 14 GB. So I would suggest going to the local library or coffee shop and downloading the patches or games and just use your internet at home for some occasional gallery browsing.

you only need internet to sign in to origin, use the gallery, or download patches. so there's not really a reason to look for a "best internet" for this game

I've been downloading this present patch for hours and it is at 50% that is why I ask. I'm planning on getting a new one and I thought I would see what would be best especially for downloading.

1.5 what? 1.5GB/s? That should be more than enough tho.

I'd say about 500mb/s is a good enough speed to download patches and stuff.
