Whether you’re watching movies, working from home or studying for your next exam, there are plenty of reasons to make sure your internet speed is fast and reliable.

Paul Sinclair from Zen Internet tells us more about the latest gigabit-speed internet now available in Ipswich and five reasons why you need it.

1. Ultrafast full fibre broadband can help you remain productive while working at home

Flexible working has become the new normal for many following the Covid-19 pandemic. This means you need broadband that can handle uploading large files, running complex programmes and will ensure you can connect to your work colleagues and clients at all times.

“Our Full Fibre 900 Plus package includes unlimited broadband with uploading and downloading speeds 90x faster than standard broadband,” Paul says. “It’s one of the fastest connections you can get and can be accessed anywhere throughout your home ensuring your business can run smoothly, no matter where your desk is located.”

2. Reliable broadband connection can ensure your child keeps up with their education

The last year has seen more schools using remote learning platforms and programmes like Microsoft Teams to deliver lessons.

“Students need access to ultrafast and stable broadband to help them conduct necessary research, complete homework assignments and stay on top of their schoolwork,” Paul says.

“A reliable broadband connection can make sure your child doesn’t miss out on anything,” Paul adds.

3. High bandwidth allows for multiple smart devices to be connected at the same time

“The full fibre packages allow for multiple devices in your home to be connected at the same time without compromising performance,” Paul explains. “This is ideal for homes equipped with smart TV’s, smart kitchen appliances and even security systems.”

With high bandwidth, you can install smart meters to help cut your energy bills and usage, as well as fit the latest home security systems equipped with cameras to better protect your home.
