Supersonic will upgrade all customer’s line speeds to help work from home

The internet service provider announced this morning that they would be upgrading their infrastructure to boost the line speeds of all their customers while everyone in the country is locked down and kept home.

So the trend of helping hands and boosted line speeds continues as ISP Supersonic has now confirmed that they too will be upgrading all their customer’s packages while under lockdown. In a press release sent out this morning, Supersonic confirmed that they were making changes to their infrastructure to ensure faster and more stable internet connections for all its users.

“Work on our core network upgrades to be able to accommodate the forecasted increase in network traffic – including peering to fixed line network operators plus the relevant internet exchanges, is well underway,” said Calvin Collett, Managing Director for Supersonic. “The upgrades are vital so we can ensure we continue delivering a brighter service under these ‘not-so-bright’ circumstances,” he elaborated.

This comes just a week after Supersonic announced special “work from home” packages which would allow businesses to provide employees with consistent internet connections without breaking the bank. While the improvements have not been completed, Supersonic is looking to finish the process by 3 April, whereupon all user’s lines will be upgraded. “With the capacity we’re able to introduce to the network will also afford us the opportunity to develop a host of new products which we’ll launch within the next couple of weeks,” concluded Collett.

Supersonic has stated that it will be in full support of other operators such as Vumatel and Frogfoot who have also pledged to upgrade line speeds across the country.
