DNA’s tips for smooth remote studying
Autumn has arrived, and a challenging study period lies ahead. Schoolwork goes smoothly when you have the right tools and suitable routines in place. Here are some tips from DNA to ensure successful remote studying without unnecessary stress.
1. Sufficient internet speed enables smooth remote studying
Fast internet enables seamless remote studying, uninterrupted lectures, and quick file sharing.
Hoasnet 200 Mbit/s provided by DNA is included in the rent for Hoas apartments and is immediately available for you to use.
2. Ensure your WiFi modem is up to date
Technology advances, and network traffic grows rapidly, making an outdated WiFi modem unable to keep up with the developments. If you have a WiFi modem that is over 4 years old, it’s worth retiring it to ensure uninterrupted internet connectivity.
DNA takes care of the secure recycling of your old modem and assists in selecting a new one when you visit a DNA Store. Best of all, DNA offers interest-free and fee-free DNA Maksuaika for modems sold by DNA. You can find your nearest DNA Store here: www.dna.fi/kaupat
3. Try different environments
Find a suitable space for different tasks. Experiment with various study locations at home, change your spot occasionally, and consider studying at a cottage or a café whenever possible.
Different individuals and tasks require different environments, and occasional changes can help with concentration. Headphones and background music can also be helpful at times.
4. Portable internet ensures secure connectivity
When studying in places like cafés, it’s safer to use mobile internet instead of public WiFi. You can conveniently use mobile internet by inserting a SIM card into your laptop or using a portable DNA Matkamokkula. You can get an offer for DNA’s mobile internet subscription by entering your home details at www.dna.fi/nettimukaan.
Using your phone to share internet is not recommended for continuous use, as it shortens the phone’s lifespan and may drain the battery. If you use public WiFi, protect your connection and privacy with a VPN service.
5. Minimize distractions and remember to take breaks!
It’s challenging to focus on studying when notifications from social media and messaging apps keep popping up on your phone and computer. When you need to concentrate, close instant messaging programs and activate the “Do Not Disturb” mode.
It’s easy to get deeply absorbed in studying once you get into a rhythm. Therefore, make sure to take sufficient breaks and rest throughout the day. At the end of the day, engage in something enjoyable that takes your mind off the screen.
