Why Winter Is the Real Test of Your Rural Internet

February is often the coldest and snowiest time of year in Canada — and for many rural households, it’s when internet usage is at its highest.

Between streaming, video calls, online shopping, remote work, and kids home for long weekends, winter can quickly expose whether your current internet service is keeping up.

More Demand, More Devices

During winter months, households tend to:

  • Spend more time streaming TV and movies

  • Use video calling to connect with family

  • Work from home during storms or school closures

  • Connect multiple devices at once

When internet service struggles under this demand, buffering and slowdowns become more noticeable.
