15/1 isnt awesome at all, LOL, but I throttled my upload speed to 100KBPS and I am able to actually use my internet while uploading for once, maybe I'll bump it to 250kbps and see what happens.

Will probably choke.maybe I'll bump it to 250kbps and see what happens.
1 mbit ~= 125 KB/sec

That doesn't sound right... I calculated that .1 mbps is 100kbps. I am currently running the upload at 250kbps and my internet is fine.
It's not like I've been doing this professionally for ~8 years or anything..
You're just referring to bits and not converting for bytes.

0.1Mbps upload isn't limited enough? Do you realize how long it would take to upload a multi-gig video file at an even slower speed?

Each video took about two hours to upload at .25 MBPS. To be 100% honest I don't care how long it takes to upload, it's more of being able to actually use my internet connection to do other things while a video uploads.
Allow me to make you jealous of my fiber connection at work.

Alright I really need a solution to my crap bandwidth. Turns out the 15mbps is the highest speed available in my area and now I've capped my PC's upload to just 100kbps but my entire network slows down when uploading even a 10 minute video and then I have to put up with everyone complaining about "THE F**KING WIFI IS BROKE AGAIN!" for what seems like an eternity. I might just put all the videos I need to upload on a flash drive and sneak it into school and upload it there when nobody's looking... GOOGLE FIBER I NEED YOU!
There's nothing you can do.
Personally the uploading videos isn't worth the impact, he could always upload while at McDonald's instead lol.

My 15mbps U-Verse line is actually working right today. It's like the ISP Gods have smiled upon me...
