Choosing the right internet provider is critical for your home’s connectivity. Here's what to consider:

1. Speed and Reliability: A 250 Mbps connection is usually sufficient for the average household, supporting multiple devices streaming and gaming simultaneously. Fiber-optic connections from Etisalat or du are more reliable than 5G service, particularly indoors where mobile signals may be weak.

2. Hardware Matters: A good internet plan is only as effective as your Wi-Fi hardware. Invest in a high-quality router or a distributed network setup. I would also advise on utilising physical connections to access points and computers rather than relying solely on mesh systems. This ensures consistent speed and coverage.

3. Customer Experience: Based on personal experience, du is reliable with quick issue resolution. However, the choice between du and Etisalat often depends on available packages and personal preference. Virgin’s plans are budget-friendly.

Conclusion: Evaluate your household’s internet usage and prioritize reliability over cost to avoid frequent connectivity issues. Don’t underestimate the impact of good hardware on your experience.
