Reading Time: 2 minutes 

Smart Homes Need Smart Internet – But Is 5G or Fibre the Better Fit?

Working from home has gone from a temporary fix to the new normal - and the internet connection you choose can make or break your day. 

Whether you're in back-to-back video calls, sending large files, or working across cloud platforms, fibre gives you the speed, stability and reliability you need to stay productive. 

Here’s how fibre makes working from home faster, smoother, and less stressful. 

1.Smooth Video Calls, No Freezing Faces

A shaky connection in the middle of a Zoom or Teams call isn’t just awkward - it’s unprofessional. Fibre gives you consistent, high-speed connectivity that keeps video clear and audio crisp, even when other people in your home are online too.
Tip: With symmetrical fibre (equal upload and download speeds), your calls won’t glitch just because your camera’s on. 
 

2.Faster Cloud Access and Large File Transfers

If your work depends on platforms like Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive or remote servers, slow upload speeds can eat into your day. Fibre handles cloud-based work seamlessly -large files, real-time collaboration, remote backups, all without lag.
No more waiting ages for a file to send. 
 

3.Reliable Connection for Always-On Tools

From Slack and Outlook to VPNs and CRM platforms, remote work depends on always-on tools. Fibre is wired directly into your home, so it isn’t affected by signal interference, tower congestion or network throttling - unlike mobile or wireless connections.
It just works. All day. Every day. 
 

4.More People, More Devices? No Problem

Fibre in a home is normally used by more than one person. Someone’s on a video call, someone’s streaming, someone else is uploading schoolwork. Fibre keeps up with multiple users and devices, without dragging everyone down.
 

5.Flexibility Without the Frustration

Need to send files after hours? Jump on a late meeting with another time zone? Upload a presentation before school drop-off? Fibre gives you the freedom to work on your terms, without worrying about the time, lag or limited data.
And with our uncapped, unshaped packages - you can work without limits.
