Good internet makes me a very happy bunny! / myLot

Lately, I've noticed my internet has been a little too sluggish for my liking. But I just couldn't be bothered to report it. That was until I woke up last Friday to find the dreaded red dot signalling we'd lost all access! To say it was panic stations all round would be putting it mildly. I had an online lesson coming up that evening and just could not miss it. And that was just one thing - my husband and I work remotely and need the internet to function! Luckily, the techs who work for my service provider are THE BEST. My go-to techie fixed it remotely but said he wasn't happy with the quality. He promised he'd send someone around to swap our modem for a better version in a few days. And yesterday, I got the call and like the techie promised, his colleague came around and did it all in no time. I never thought I'd say this about an ISP in my country but I LOVE my current internet provider! Are you as lucky as I am to have a fantastic ISP that always has your back? I truly hope so

@jvicentevalera Oh, thank God. What's your country of origin, if you don't mind me asking?

@thelme55 It makes sense because the internet is now so central to everything we do.

Thank you :) Whenever the internet plays up, I just panic because everything falls behind. And we certainly can't afford any of that.

Yes, you are right. If the internet speed is good, a lot of online work is completed.

Good for you. Certainly with what has been going on, having a stable and reliable internet connection is a necessity. Can't say the same for the ISPs here in my country. They are all slow as turtles when in comes to accomplishing and completing tasks.
