Speed.

It can be a relative term, depending on your needs.

When it comes to an Internet connection, consumers are always eager for the fastest possible service. For many, fast and reliable service is vital for streaming their favourite movies and shows, connecting with their workplace, or even video chatting with family and friends.

Those are all areas where Xplornet strives to deliver to its customers, specifically those in rural communities who are often left out of the latest and greatest online links.

鈥淴plornet鈥檚 mission is to reach those rural places, like Humboldt, and provide the fastest Internet connection speeds possible,鈥 says Rhonda Adair, Xplornet district manager for Saskatchewan.

鈥淧reviously, the service in that area was only five to ten megabits per second. But we鈥檝e now made a significant investment into restructuring our network throughout Saskatchewan, doubling the current speeds.鈥

In December of 2019, Xplornet amplified its service and began offering download speeds of up to 50 megabits per second, which made for a very healthy network. Ultimately, this meant delivering uninterrupted streaming content, fast connections to information, and robust support for video calling, all of which include unlimited data.

鈥淔or rural Internet users to be able to get up to 50 megabits per second is simply quite amazing,鈥 Adair says. 鈥淴plornet鈥檚 philosophy voices that everyone should have access to the online world.鈥

鈥淎nd our customers are very happy because it gives them the capability to run more devices simultaneously, at a very high speed.鈥

鈥淚f you have five people in your home, you鈥檙e most likely using a minimum of eight wifi connections,鈥 Adair adds. 鈥淵ou have cellphones, tablets, laptops, desktops, and even printers, all running off wifi. Many dislike the inconvenience of cables.鈥

As a result of the faster connection, customers can stream more and download more. Additionally, video gamers can play without interruption or buffering, even during peak hours.

This also provides work-from-home users with the confidence to make important online connections.

鈥淢any users attempt to run large reports for working purposes, and for that, you need bandwidth,鈥 Adair says. 鈥淴plornet gives you that.鈥

Aside from the reliability a speedy Internet connection provides, the social connection it delivers is also important for many users.

鈥淒uring these times, many families are attempting to connect through various platforms - Facebook Messenger, Zoom, or Skype - and these connections are successful as a result of the reliable connection speed we provide.鈥
