After spending many years traveling the world my question would be why is the infrastructure in the U.S. so poor? I have watched streaming video in most parts of the world without problem. In Europe you will typically have an allowance to check email, surf, etc, and pay an extra charge to stream. In Asia and the mid east it’s wide open. There is a reason that the U.S. is ranked around 40th for Internet speed. Until the ISPs make an effort to improve infrastructure it will be problematic. Google is trying in a few markets but sweetheart deals between local government and providers make it tough. Instead of complaining about the guy in the next trailer watching netflix we (users and park owners) should be complaining to the providers about the lack of bandwidth.
