CONNECTION AND TRAVEL / QUESTION 13

A home needs a different check

A practical explanation to read before you act.

Fixed broadband and mobile broadband reach a property differently. A fixed service depends on the line technology available at the address; a cellular router uses a mobile connection.
LOOK CLOSER

What to establish first

For either route, identify the equipment, address eligibility, expected performance, term and return conditions. For cellular service, router placement and local reception can change the experience between rooms.

THE NEXT STEP

Keep the distinction clear

A mobile phone’s data icon is not a household speed guarantee. Separate the wireless link inside the home from the external internet connection when describing a problem. The provider must investigate the actual service.
