How Fiber Networks Support Edge Computing

Edge computing is a type of IT infrastructure in which data is collected, stored, and processed near the "edge" or on the device itself instead of being transmitted to a centralized processor. Edge computing systems usually involve a network of devices, sensors, or machinery capable of data processing and interconnection. A main benefit of edge computing is its low latency. Since each endpoint processes information near the source, it can be easier to process data, respond to requests, and produce detailed analytics.

Bye bye, Wi-Fi: This low-cost adapter lets you set up a wired network without running ethernet

The answer is to run a wired network connection to your home office. Wi-Fi is great for mobility, but a wired connection offers many advantages when it comes to working from home. It's faster and more reliable, with lower latency, all of which matters if you regularly share large files, participate in high-quality video meetings, or even (ahem) play games.

Internet spent Q4 '25 fighting with cables, power, itself

Across 2025 as a whole, the company tracked more than 180 significant disruptions, with the final quarter dominated by cable damage, power problems, and routine operational failures. There was just one confirmed government-directed shutdown during the period. Tanzania saw a sharp drop in internet traffic on October 29 as violent protests broke out during the country's presidential election, with traffic falling by more than 90 percent. Traffic returned briefly before declining again, and routing data pointed to throttling rather than a clean shutdown.

Traditional Network Monitoring is Failing

For any IT department, these four words are the beginning of a familiar, often frustrating, journey. In our modern world, where business success is built on distributed applications and hybrid cloud architectures, the network is the circulatory system. When it fails, everything grinds to a halt. Yet, despite its critical importance, it often remains a black box-a source of blame that is difficult to prove or disprove.

AI requires stronger upload connections among U.S. carriers: Report

Ookla said the growing use of ChatGPT and other AI tools places much more demand on mobile networks than the typical activities of browsing social media and the web, watching videos, texting, and making the occasional phone call. As a result, more speed and expanded capabilities will be necessary. The report said advanced AI capabilities like AI-enabled glasses will put a particular strain on upload connections in the future.

Slow home internet? Here are 3 things I always check first to regain fast Wi-Fi speeds

Nearly every part of modern life depends on our connection to the internet. When my provider experiences an outage, everything grinds to a halt -- working remotely via VPN, streaming music on Spotify, and even using smart home devices. It's a stark reminder of how much we rely on the invisible network that keeps us connected. Almost every aspect of modern life is affected by our connectivity to the Web.

I no longer run internet speed tests in any other way (and how I use results for better Wi-Fi)

Do you know what your internet speed is? Are you getting the service your ISP ( internet service provider) promised when you signed that contract? Or are you dealing with slow internet? These might seem like simple questions, but they're important ones. Internet speeds affect nearly everything you do online: how smoothly your video calls run, how responsive your video games feel, and whether you can stream the latest season of "Stranger Things" without buffering.

AI and machine learning are the future of Wi-Fi management: WBA report

AI and ML are critical for enabling autonomous, self-optimizing Wi-Fi networks capable of managing dense deployments and real-time performance demands. AI/ML reduces operational costs, improves reliability and security and delivers a more consistent quality of experience. Proprietary approaches, inconsistent data quality, and closed interfaces slow innovation and increase integration costs. Interoperable frameworks - not algorithms - will be key to success. Interoperability must include data models, telemetry, APIs, and model lifecycle management.
