Imagine you are at home, and you want to watch that latest box set that everyone’s talking about on Netflix.
Connecting you to the world
First you have to connect to the internet to be able to view your show, and depending on how and what you use to connect, the speed at which that ‘must see’ series is delivered to you can make the difference between enjoyable watching or very painful waiting.
We recognise the frustrations and have developed a guide to help you understand and navigate your way through the available options on how to connect from your home so that you can enjoy easy internet browsing from the comfort of your sofa at home, or on the go.
Why do I need to be connected?
Think back to 2020 when the World went into lockdown and most of us were forced to stay at home ...
Life - for most - slowed down, the worry of seeing your nearest and dearest was very real and finding ways to buy basic commodities such as food, toiletries and other necessary items became an event.
Supermarkets, online stores and local shops turned all their attention to their online presence and invested in better technologies and communication methods to ensure the change in the way people shopped were met in the easiest ways possible.
We turned small spaces into home offices and the TV, Social Media, and our home phones were our only means of staying updated and connected with our family, friends and work colleagues.
Never before had the ability of staying connected been questioned but the pandemic highlighted just how important it was to connect and this guide has been developed to help you understand what being connected actually means.
We’ll explain the options in simple terms and help you navigate issues that you may come accross on the way.
Is your service fast enough?
After a long day, the majority of people sit down, relax and maybe watch something on the TV. What if your partner is watching their favourite vlogger on Youtube in the next room and your child is playing a computer game upstairs? Have you noticed that your show is struggling or slowed right down to a painful pause?
