The Download speed is how fast your connection can download data from internet. Most of the time download speed is much faster than upload speed. More the download speed means less time loading web pages, emails or streaming videos and better game performance.

Upload speed specify how fast your internet connection can upload data on internet. For most of the users Upload speed does not matter as much as download speed until if uploading large files/videos, video conferencing or video chat.

A good internet speed depends on your personal use. These days Internet speed is usually represented in Mbps (Mega Bits per Second).

Internet service providers define internet speed as Upload Speed and Download Speed. If your internet usage is limited to checking emails, browsing websites and occasional YouTube/video streaming then 3Mbps Download, 1Mbps Upload bandwidth would be enough.

On the other hands if you are into HD video streaming and online gaming and/or have multiple users using the internet, better to have minimum 10Mbps/1Mbps bandwidth.
