Upgrade Your Bandwidth: How to Overcome Slow Internet Speeds

Are You Stuck on Old Bandwidth?

In today's world, fast and reliable internet connectivity is a must-have for both personal and professional use. Whether it's streaming your favorite shows or uploading large files for work, having access to high-speed internet is essential. However, many individuals and businesses are still relying on outdated technology for their internet connectivity, such as DSL or MPLS. If you are still using these outdated technologies, it's time to consider upgrading your connectivity.

 

Old Technology - DSL & MPLS

DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) is a type of internet connection that uses copper telephone lines to transmit data. While it was once a popular choice for home and small business internet connectivity, it is now considered outdated technology. DSL has limited bandwidth due to distance limitations, resulting in slow and unreliable internet speeds.

MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) is a more advanced technology that was designed for large-scale corporate networks. While MPLS is much more reliable than DSL, it can still be slower and more expensive compared to newer service options.

 

Upgrade via s2s

If you are ready to upgrade your internet connectivity, the best way to do so is through a Managed Service Provider (MSP) that specializes in ISP aggregation. Here are some benefits of upgrading via an MSP like s2s Communications:

 

Single Point of Contact

When partnering with an ISP aggregator, you only deal with one service provider for all of your internet connectivity needs. This means that you can simplify your billing, deployment and support processes, and have a single point of contact for any requests, issues or concerns your employees may have. And with s2s, this means all of your ISP fees are billed on a single, monthly invoice that is itemized by location. At a glance and at all times you know exactly what services are billing at all of your locations. 

 

Due Diligence

When upgrading your connectivity, it's important to work with an MSP who is ISP agnostic and conducts the necessary due diligence to verify all available options that fit the needs of your business. This means the MSP identifies all providers in the area, services offered, and confidence of serviceability. It also means the MSP takes your requirements into consideration (broadband vs. DIA, minimum bandwidth, redundancy factors, etc.) when vetting and presenting available options and pricing.  

 

Reach

This is super important for multi-location businesses with locations across North America or beyond. An MSP who can establish connectivity across the globe, means you will in fact have the single point of contact which is so valuable. Having all of your locations connected, supported, and billed by a single provider streamlines everything for your teams, resulting in operational efficiency.

 

Scalability & Support

As your business grows, you need a partner who can grow with you. s2s employs telecom specialists and engineers who are 100% dedicated to s2s customers. Resources are increased as needed, to ensure service levels are not just met, but exceeded. This means phone calls, chats and emails are answered by the actual humans supporting the accounts. And regarding support, this is guaranteed on a 24x7x365 basis. Issues that arise are addressed and resolved quickly to ensure your business is up and running. 

In conclusion, if you are still relying on outdated technologies like DSL or MPLS, it's time to consider upgrading your connectivity to more modern internet service options. And partnering with an MSP like s2s who specializes in ISP aggregation is an ideal way to do so, providing you a single point of contact for deployment, billing and support across your footprint.
