Great team at MATE! Honestly whenever I have a problem they fix asap. Just spoke to a gentlemen by the name of Luca, he was a legend. Was very patient and did all he can do to assist with the outage.

Was so easy to install and the internet is a blessing. Before it was dropping out every 10 minutes, we have had 2 dropouts now each for about a minute. The service they provide is excellent.
