Found a hack for getting reliable wifi in Bali hostels

Been bouncing around Ubud for 3 months and the wifi in hostels is always garbage after 5pm lol. I tried using a mobile hotspot but the data runs out too fast with video calls. Last week I started going to a coworking spot called Hubud at 7am before everyone shows up and it's been solid for 6 hours straight. Cost me like $5 for a day pass and I can actually get work done. Anyone else deal with peak-hour wifi slowdowns and found a fix?

Hubud is legit for early mornings but try Outpost too, they have a similar setup and sometimes even faster fiber. Even bought their weekly pass once and it saved me when I had back-to-back calls.

Why not just use a VPN with your phone data and throttle your video quality down a notch? Those coworking passes add up fast if you're staying for months.
