It appears that the new normal work-from-home setu It appears that the new normal work-from-home setup is here to stay for now, at least until it’s safe once again to gather. Being a household of six adults, upgrading the home internet set-up has become imperative. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
The last thing we need are dead spots and weak signal areas in certain parts of the house, right? We might think our existing WiFi and router set-up is already good enough for our needs, but no, we experience poor latency at times.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Right now, we’re definitely exploring the WiFi Mesh system to take the experience to the next level.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
PLDT Home offers excellent benefits for this WiFi Mesh system.⁣ (SWIPE LEFT)⁣
⁣⁣
Thanks to its dual-band Wi-Fi technology, it can identify the connection most applicable to your current use, allowing consistent and efficient connectivity.⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
Second, its seamless roaming makes it possible to use only one Wi-Fi name in the house without worrying about internet connectivity reaching the room, no matter how far it is from your internet’s main router.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
PLDT Home offers an array of WiFi Mesh devices for as low as Php 298 per month for a starter kit, which already comes with two mesh units. Subscribers who need more internet coverage at home can also avail of an additional mesh device for as low as Php 149 per month.⁣⁣

A beach? An island? Nope. This is the crater lake A beach? An island? Nope. This is the crater lake of the Taal Volcano when I visited several years back. Today, PHIVOLCS raised the status of the volcano to Alert Level 2 indicating increasing unrest. Praying for the safety of everyone around the area.

With the family mostly at home during this pandemic, one loaf is definitely not enough, especially when we’re almost always hungry! Two to three loaves is ideal to make sure we have enough for the week. 💕⁣⁣
