The kids are back in school, and even though the weather is still warm, the days are getting shorter, and we’re all spending more time inside. And we all know what that means: more people using your home internet. Some of that is normal internet usage, but now there is the addition of online schooling. Whether it’s a high school or grade school with a hybrid format or someone earning their college degree online, there’s more activity using up your bandwidth. And not all home internet providers are up to the task. With Fios Pro, you can increase your internet speeds significantly so that everyone can work and play at the same time.
Here are some of the ways Fios outperforms other home internet providers.
Better Upload Speeds
This is the big one when it comes to remote learning and working from home. Most broadband providers have good enough download speeds, but their upload speeds are lacking. Most of the time you won’t notice it, but you’ll become acutely aware of it when your video conference freezes. Your upload speed dictates how quickly you can send data over the internet. When you are doing something like streaming, you are mostly receiving data, so a slower upload speed is not an issue. If you are trying to upload a massive file or participate in a video call with many participants, however, you’ll miss the upload speed if you don’t have it.
More Reliable Connection
Even if you have great speed, that’s not going to do you any good if you don’t have a reliable connection. Cable internet is subject to all kinds of issues that can cause network disruptions. If the infrastructure is weak or there is a problem with the phone company, you can experience network outages. Construction near your home or even the weather can also disrupt your internet connection. Fiberoptic internet is independent of the phone company and so not subject to issues on their end. Fiber also cannot be easily disrupted by electronic or radio signals. It is consistently reliable and less likely to go out than cable internet.
