Consistent Connection at Home Has Never Been More Important

2020 is not the year for slow-moving internet. On top of more people working remotely than ever before, all Hawaii public schools are required to participate in virtual learning this year. You’re already learning how to juggle all the responsibilities of your job on top of helping your children adapt to virtual learning. Spotty Wi-Fi is the last thing you need to be dealing with during your workday.
