It’s back to school time! Do you know if you have the right Internet speed to start the new school year? As kids return to school, the need to incorporate Internet becomes greater.  As we continue to incorporate wireless devices into our everyday life at home, each time we connect one of these devices it uses bandwidth. You may wonder what does bandwidth even mean? When we say bandwidth, we are referring to the capacity and speed at which a

network can transmit data. This simply means that the more devices you have connecting to the Internet

the more bandwidth you are using to send data and therefore slowing down the process. We understand

this can be tricky to understand so below we have a link here that breaks down Internet speeds, number of users, and type of activity you are using the Internet for to help with determining if you have the right speed. To find out your current speed, go to lhtcbroadband.com where you can do a Speedtest to see what you are connecting at.
