How do I know what internet speed I actually need?
Your internet needs depend on how you use it daily. Think about whether you work from home, how many people in your household are online at the same time, and what activities matter most to you—like streaming, gaming, or video calls. If you're mostly browsing and streaming alone, you need less speed than a busy family juggling work calls, online school, and entertainment simultaneously. The key is matching your internet to your actual lifestyle, not paying for more than you'll use.
What happens to my internet during a power outage?
Most internet connections go down when the power goes out, which can be a real problem if you work from home or rely on internet for important activities. Some internet plans are designed with backup power to keep you connected even during outages, which can be a game-changer if losing internet would seriously disrupt your day. It's worth considering this depending on how critical your internet connection is to your work and daily life.
Can multiple people use the internet at the same time without things slowing down?
Yes, but it depends on your internet plan. If you have a household where people are working, attending school, streaming, and gaming all at once, you need a connection with enough bandwidth to handle it all without freezing or lagging. A stronger internet connection ensures everyone can do their thing simultaneously—video calls won't freeze, 4K streams stay smooth, and downloads happen fast—without everyone fighting over limited speed.
Is faster internet always better, or am I paying for more than I need?
Faster internet isn't always necessary—it depends entirely on how you use it. If you live alone and mainly browse, stream, and check email, a basic connection works great. But if you're managing multiple users and activities at once, or you do work that involves uploading and downloading large files, faster speeds make a real difference in your daily experience. The trick is finding the right fit for your lifestyle so you're not overpaying for speed you won't use.
Should I upgrade my internet if I'm thinking about working from home more?
If you're planning to work from home regularly, upgrading your internet is worth considering. Your current connection might be fine for casual use, but working from home adds demands like video conferencing, file uploads, and steady connectivity that require a more reliable connection. A stronger internet plan ensures you won't have dropped calls, frozen screens, or slow uploads that could impact your work performance and professionalism.
