I should be going up from 50 Mbps to 1000 Mbps later this week if install goes well. Should know this week hopefully.

Is there any way's anyone is making money off their extra bandwidth? Just wondering if there is a way to monetize it if I do get the install later this week.

This should allow you to hit the faucets faster!

The speed shouldn't affect the speed of the faucets. As every faucet records time serverside, they would only allow you to hit the faucet again after a specific time frame, internet speed shouldn't matter. If loading time is a factor, 50mbps is quite enough for a webpage to load within seconds. Still, faucets are never a good idea.

the only way I see you doing this for money would be, becoming a hosting source.

so for example you let your neighbor pay basically your internet bill. So you have free internet as long the person pays, but you would have to compare on if that persons rate.

or the different approach where you download stuff for people? I dont know.. how well that sounds. Unless people are that super busy to need as service like that.

That simply isn't an option. Your neighbours aren't stupid, internet speed decreases with wifi range. The WIFI signal is unlikely to penetrate through the walls. Even if they want internet, they wouldn't bother asking you for it. They would just subscribe to a new connection themselves and less hassle if something happens to the router. Another problem is the security aspect. By allowing a third party into your internet connection, MITM could potentially occur.
