  • Telia's head of radio networks explains why remote internet is slow and offers solutions for stable connections.

Working remotely from a country house in summer is common for Lithuanians, with almost a third of the workforce connecting from afar. However, a stable internet connection can be a challenge in these rural settings.

Several factors affect internet performance in remote locations. These include the distance to the nearest communication tower, the surrounding terrain, the presence of trees, and even the construction materials of the house itself. These elements can all interfere with signal strength and consistency.

Ramลซnas Mikalauskas, head of Telia's radio network, shed light on these issues. He explained the reasons behind the intermittent internet experienced in more isolated areas. Mikalauskas also provided practical advice for ensuring a stable connection, even when working from a country retreat. His recommendations aim to help remote workers maintain productivity without being hampered by unreliable internet.
