Even though many of us don’t realize it, the Internet service from BrightRidge and the WiFi network used to share that Internet with all the devices in your home are actually different networks and it can be difficult for many to tell where one network ends and the other begins. THAT IS WHERE SELF-HELP FROM ROUTETHIS COMES IN AND BRIGHTRIDGE NOW OFFERS IT TO YOU FOR FREE!
Self-Help empowers customers to identify and resolve Wi-Fi connectivity issues within the home without needing the need to email or call or technical support (and let’s be honest, sometimes you just don’t want to talk to someone else. We get it). The easy-to-use tool runs a complete diagnostic scan using your mobile device to collect hundreds of data points in order to identify potential problems and provides you with steps that can solve them. Give it a try today!
