Speed should be the same (as in ping), the bandwidth is half of it. If you are alone 50Mb/s should be more than enought for people who don't need to download huge amounts of data quickly.
So if you don't build operating systems from source code, don't need to download huge games on a regular basis, don't work as a editor with huge video files you share with others, don't do p2p pirating, and similar things, I don't think you will see a big difference.
If you're a big family where everyone starts streaming youtube or twitch/netflix or do alot of voice/IP calls when they come home at the same time, then you will feel the difference.
