The Proper Access Story
Spencer Proper has spent his entire life working with computers, IT, and networking. He is a true geek. Not too long ago he realized that more and more devices were becoming "internet connected." Spencer reasoned that one day soon, everything with a power switch will be connected. He sees the amazing benefits that "smart home tech" brings to families of all types.
As Spencer helped his friends and family hook up their smart home devices, he realized that there was a huge problem. The internet routers that his friends and family were using couldn’t reliably handle more than five devices. Even the most expensive consumer-grade router that his Uncle Chuck owned could only connect eight devices. This gave Uncle Chuck many headaches because he had a phone, laptop, tablet, and many smart home devices. When these were combined with all of his family's other devices, there were easily seventeen devices that needed to maintain a connection within this one home. Uncle Chuck's high end router was simply dyeing under the workload.
This led Spencer to do some research. As he looked into the problem, he was shocked to learn the problem was even bigger than just his own circle of family and friends. Spencer learned that the problem was everywhere people needed a fast, reliable, and safe connection to the internet. He heard story after story about "the little black modem box" that the internet service provider installed in people's homes and businesses. He heard how unreliable they were. How they needed to be rebooted four to five times a week. He interviewed people and listened as they told him time and time again about all of their connection problems as they were buying more devices. The smart home dream was becoming a nightmare.
That's when Spencer found out about Proper Access. He was so excited he became their lead spokesperson.
