How to find the ideal internet connection?

The faster your internet connection, the more enjoyable your virtual reality experience will be. Rest assured, you won't have to go through all the internet provider sites to find the best connection on the market. Today, it is very easy to know which operator offers the best internet speed at home. There are specialized sites to test your eligibility for fiber or ADSL. Just fill in your mailing address or phone number and the eligibility tester does the rest for you.


Once the test has been carried out, several scenarios may arise:

  • You are already equipped with fiber, in these cases you will have to check which operator offers the best speed in your home.
  • You are eligible for fiber but your operator does not offer it to you. Here you can find out about the operators who can install it for you.
  • You are not eligible for fiber and must keep an ADSL contract. Here again, it will be necessary to determine which access provider guarantees the best connection.
  • You are not eligible for any of these offers. You live in a white or gray area and will need to find a satellite operator to benefit from an internet connection.

In fact, fiber is not yet developed throughout France. However, it is better to have a very good ADSL connection than a bad fiber connection.
