Great Plains Internet

The ice damaged two or more radios on the elk city tower, we will work as quickly as we can to restore service.

Good morning everyone! I wanted to bring an issue to your attention. Netflix, YouTube, Hulu and other providers are flooded right now. Everyone is home and using more services than ever before, and even they are struggling to keep up. The daytime, evening, and night time people are all home at the same time. This normally happens on a holiday weekend or something like that, not for weeks at a time. I have seen my daytime bandwidth double as a result. I have tools in place to check and ensure the quality of your connections inside my network, but outside I have zero control. Remember you're always allowed unlimited data use and will never be charged extra or slowed down at any point.

During some testing tonight I was experiencing lots of buffering while watching the DisneyPlus app. After trying a few other streaming services I decided that it was not the Internet but DisneyPlus. Keep this in mind if you are having issues while streaming try multiple services, they do get busy and have issues like everyone.

Hammon watch out!
