Each week, we break down common internet terms in plain English.

Today’s term: Fiber to the Home vs Fiber Powered

Fiber to the Home (FTTH) means fiber optic cable runs all the way to your home, delivering fast and consistent internet directly to you.

Fiber Powered means fiber is only used for part of the network. The final connection to your home is usually something else, like cable or copper lines.

Why it matters:
With Fiber to the Home, you get more reliable speeds, better performance, and fewer slowdowns during busy times.

With Fiber Powered, performance can vary depending on the type and condition of the connection to your home.

Think of it like this:
FTTH is a direct connection.
Fiber Powered is only part of the journey.

April is Child Abuse Prevention Month, and MINET is honored to continue our partnership with Family Building Blocks and Les Schwab Tires for the 17th Annual Diaper Drive.

While our community typically rallies to collect 60,000 diapers each year, we’ve set our sights even higher for 2026: a goal of 100,000 diapers.

You can help us bridge the gap for local families. Throughout the month of April, we are accepting donations at our main office during regular business hours. We are specifically looking for:

Diapers (Sizes 5, 6, and 7)

Pull-ups

Baby wipes

Thank you for helping us support the families who need it most!

Happy April Fool's Day, although we aren't joking that it is Pet Wednesday.

Tomas has one last pet to share, meet Roux!

Hi, I'm Roux, and I'm the youngest short-haired orange cat. I'm the most delicate snuggler. I will move slowly until I'm in a comfortable position to ensure I'm not hurting you with my nails. Don't take me on car rides because I'll become anxious and froth at the mouth.

Each week, we break down common internet terms in plain English.
Today’s term: Network Congestion

Network congestion happens when too many people or devices are using the internet at the same time, causing things to slow down.

Just like traffic on a busy road, when there’s more demand than the network can handle at once, everything moves a little slower.

Why it matters:
Network congestion can cause slower speeds, buffering, and lag, especially during peak times like evenings when many people are streaming, gaming, or working online.

Think of it like rush hour traffic.
More cars on the road = slower travel times.

A strong network is built to handle congestion and keep things running smoothly, even during busy times.

It's Pet Wednesday again, and Tomas is up again with Loki!

Loki's the epitome of Garfield, large & fluffy. Always wants to be on a lap whenever food isn't available. He will often annoy and fight his brothers and sisters for fun. He's friendly and often roaming around the house looking for snacks.

Each week, we break down common internet terms in plain English.
Today’s term: Buffering

Buffering happens when a video or stream pauses to load more data before it can continue playing.

Instead of playing smoothly, it stops… loads… then starts again.

Why it matters:
Buffering usually means your connection cannot keep up with the stream. This can happen if your internet speed is too low, your network is busy, or the connection is unstable.

The more consistent and capable your connection is, the less buffering you will experience.

Think of it like watching a movie that has to keep stopping to download the next scene before you can keep watching.

Pet Wednesday! Time to meet Xena, who belongs to Tomas and his family.

Xena runs the show at home, she is very demanding and wants cuddles on her own time. She will slap the other boys silly when she wants her space and is generally not interested in sharing with her brothers. She is often perched in a window fantasizing on hunting the creatures outside. She often comes back with a rat, snake and even bird present when let out.

She will try to find any leftovers that haven't put away and eat until caught. She enjoys plenty of snuggles between your legs, chest and keyboards. She loves roaming outside when the weather is right.

Each week, we break down common internet terms in plain English.

Today’s term: Bandwidth

Bandwidth is the amount of data your internet connection can handle at one time.

Think of it like a highway. The more lanes there are, the more cars can travel at once. In the same way, more bandwidth allows more devices and activities to use the internet at the same time without slowing things down.

Why it matters:
Bandwidth affects how well your internet handles multiple activities at once, like streaming a movie, joining a video call, and playing games while other devices are online.

More bandwidth means your connection can handle more without congestion or slowdowns.

Pet Wednesday is here. Time to meet Bailey.

Hello, my name is Bailey, but if you’ve got any sense of style, you’ll call me Bae. I’m a 7-year-old English bulldog-pug mix, which basically means I’ve got the tiny head of a supermodel and the thick body of a heavyweight champion. A true icon. I am mommy’s ride-or-die best friend and Daddy’s designated cuddle heater. Honestly, I don’t know how they survived before me.

My favorite activities include: • Sleeping like I’m being paid for it • Cuddling like it’s an Olympic sport • and, of course, standing guard at the front window, judging everyone who dares walk by my house.

If you’re within 20 feet of my turf, just know I see you, and yes, I am silently roasting you. I may be small-headed and thick-bodied, but make no mistake, I run this house, I run this block, and I definitely run my humans.
