For users, it’s essential to get the best broadband deals that will adequately cater for your needs of stable and powerful internet. In this article, we will introduce you to a comprehensive broadband guide for internet-crazed Singaporeans.
For non-techies: Router Vs. Mesh
Before delving deeper on the broadband comparison, we need to fully understand what is the difference a mesh and a router? Mesh(es) expands your Wi-Fi signals reach allowing you to get good wi-fi connectivity throughout your home/apartment. For homes with large floor area mesh is ideal other than routers due to its consistent speed and extensive coverage area despite the location.
Routers connect with your broadband modem enabling it to easily connect with your electronic devices such as PC, smartphone, and tablets.
Which kind of user are you?
It’s vital to purchase the best internet plan that will adequately cater for your needs, before signing a new contract. This will enable you to get the provider and service that you require.
- Low users- Those are individuals who use the internet for basics like shopping, reading emails and paying bills. For this category, you can purchase no frills and economic bouquet.
- Medium users- They are those who use the internet daily but are not avid movie fanatics or downloading music songs. For them a broadband plan with a modest download limit is adequate. When surfing you’ll receive notification when you are almost exceeding your limit. However, this comes at an additional cost.
- High users- They are internet-depriving users who love the net and spend a lot of time posting status and uploading videos and photos to a social media site, streaming movies, and downloading music albums. All these activities require cheap Wi-Fi plans for home that’s fast with high connectivity.
