The Best Internet for Remote Work
According to a report compiled by the U.S. Career Institute, 37.34% of people in Colorado work remotely at least one day per week, making it the state with the highest percentage of remote workers in the country. Though far outside the confines of the state’s larger cities, residents in areas like Steamboat Springs and Craig are also participating in this trend—The Routt County Economic Development Partnership has even included Yampa remote workers as a key industry cluster in their 2022 economic development plan and called out how “remote work continues to redefine traditional employment models.”
Though the environment is in constant flux, remote work seems to be here to stay, at least a few days a week. Routt and Moffat County remote workers need internet that can meet the demands of remote work. The speed, reliability, and bandwidth provided by Luminate’s blazing-fast fiber internet solve common work-from-home woes like dropped video calls and super slow uploads and downloads.
Why Fiber Internet is the Best Internet for Remote Work
Luminate’s Fiber Internet is widely known as the most reliable internet service available in the Yampa Valley. Here’s why:
- Fast speeds: While there’s no magic internet speed for remote work, Luminate’s fiber broadband offers the fastest speeds available in Routt and Moffat County— up to 1 Gig, supporting productivity no matter how data-heavy your job.
- Reliable service: Fiber networks lose service less frequently than any other kind of broadband network, especially in towns like Steamboat and Craig where weather events can wreak havoc on overground lines.
- More bandwidth: Greater bandwidth means you can do more data-heavy work throughout the day without impacting speed or reliability.
- Unlimited uploads and downloads: When uploading and downloading files, Luminate’s fiber broadband offers symmetrical speeds, which supports more reliable streaming and conferencing.
- No data caps: Luminate provides internet service without capping data, so you can video conference and download files as much as you need to meet your KPIs.
- Lower latency: Avoiding lag while on work calls with fiber’s reliable connection keeps you looking professional.
- Enhanced security: Fiber networks are more secure than cable or DSL lines, an important fact for remote workers dealing with sensitive information.
- Simple network management: With Luminate’s MyLuminate app, you can set up your system, manage your home and smart devices, update your SSID and password, run accurate speed tests, and manage network usage and access with ease.
Work Better with Fiber
- Video conferencing: Luminate’s fiber internet protects you from bad connections during big presentations, so you can Zoom, Teams and Google Meet with clarity. If you have a telehealth appointment during your lunch break, Luminate’s fast speeds and lower latency support these services too.
- Stream without buffering: Need to stay up-to-date on your workplace education or spend time watching YouTube for your “job”? One of the main benefits of switching to Luminate internet is experiencing uninterrupted streaming.
- Multiple devices at once: Work from home while your kids or roommates game without battling for internet speed. Luminate’s blazing-fast fiber internet has the bandwidth to handle multiple devices doing data-heavy work all at once.
- Large file transfers: Download large files without the wait with fiber speeds of up to 1 Gig.
- Remote workstation access: Login into your remote desk with ease with a strong fiber internet connection.
- Clear phone connection: When you run your phone line through fiber with VoIP, your calls are clearer and less likely to drop. Perfect for someone who has to spend the whole day on the phone. Even without VoIP, a strong Wi-Fi connection makes your cellular calls more reliable—a must for business when you live out here.
