PowEp020 - Connection Challenges The Original Connection Challenge Struggling to have a power connection due to the weather and not having a backup option Internet Connection Challenges Important Connections to make when Off-the-Grid ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Introduction Hello and welcome to the Sunshine & PowerCuts podcast, my name is Heather and I am your host. This podcast features two types of episodes which alternate. Sunshine ones offer inspiration drawn from nature, and the PowerCut episodes like this one are where I share honest insights into my life living off the power grid. Embark on a journey [em]powered by nature. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Notes from this episode: Internet Connection Speeds - the rate in megabits per second (Mbps) at which data is able to be downloaded from the internet to your computer and data is able to be uploaded from your computer to the internet. The faster the speed the faster the data is transferred, allowing for smoother livestreams for example. My original connection speed was 5Mbps down, 1Mbps up - which led to stability issues whilst connecting via video and livestreaming. The upgraded speed for the Sunshine Summit was 30Mbps down, 5Mbps up - which allowed the livestreams to go ahead. The reason the speeds were taken away at the end of August according to the Internet Service Provider (ISP) was due to the tower the signal was coming from hadn't been upgraded to be able to cope with sending data that fast wirelessly. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Important Links: Website: www.sunshineandpowercuts.com Patreon: www.patreon.com/SunshineAndPowerCuts TeeSpring: https://teespring.com/stores/sunshine-powercuts YouTube: youtube.com/HeatherWelch_life-is-beautiful Twitch: twitch.tv/sunpowerpod Ways you can connect with me: Tweet me on Twitter @SunPowerPod Follow me on Instagram @SunPowerPod Email me at [email protected] Leave me a comment on Facebook @SunshineAndPowerCuts If you have a story you'd like to share - fill in the form at the bottom of the Contact Page of the Sunshine & PowerCuts Website And you can Support the Show and get access to exclusive content and bonus episodes on Patreon. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Upcoming Event: International Podcast Day 2018 - September 30th Celebrate the Power of Podcasting I have been invited to be a guest speaker for the official International PodcastDay 2018 livestream event.
