22 Apr The all-in-one home internet solution for families

This post is a collaboration with Optus

 

If your household is anything like mine, one of the most important things keeping it running smoothly is the home internet. With 2 children in high school (one of them doing year 12), 2 girls in primary school, plus me running a home-based online business, we NEED strong, fast and reliable internet with no data caps. Especially at peak times. Not only do we all need the internet to get our work done, we also run 3 Fetch boxes, 2 iPads, 3 laptops, 1 PC and 4 mobile phones most nights. And a partridge in a pear tree!

My household has been trialling the new Optus Family Internet 100 plan and wow, it’s like this is made for my family. We have a 2-story brick home. There have always been issues getting Wifi that is strong enough to reach every room, especially at night (peak times). I can honestly say we haven’t had one single drop out on the Optus Family Internet Plan. The kids have even commented on how fast it is! I work with a lot of video content, and I have always had to deal with some type of lagging which can be frustrating, but not anymore!

My home office is in the perfect spot to hide from my kids, because they won’t venture into the garage at night to find me, but it’s in the worst spot to get a strong internet connection all the way down here. In the past, I’ve had to switch over to hotspot from my mobile to be online. Not anymore. The Ultra WiFi Booster does exactly what you would expect, boosting internet from the modem around our 2-story brick home, all the way down to my home office.

The plan also includes a handy Optus WiFi Secure feature that scans and blocks malicious attacks on all WiFi connected devices in my home – giving me peace of mind that all my family’s devices are protected from online security threats.
