Many families have encountered slow, unstable Internet connection or sudden loss of connection. Therefore, housewives can take some check-ups to quickly diagnose and handle basic incidents.
Determining problems from terminal devices
The cause of slow Internet connection may not stem from the common communication line but from the device in use at home such as computer, phone, smart TV.
Try connecting to the same wifi network with another device. If the second device accesses the Internet normally, the problem is mostly the original device. The cause may be due to a software, browser error, a virus or a network card of the device having problems.
In addition, some software update, data download, or cloud synchronization applications can occupy a large amount of bandwidth that users do not know. Checking and temporarily turning off these apps can improve Internet speed.
Check Router wifi
Router is the family's network center, where the Internet is connected to all devices. Any Router-related incident can affect the entire network system.
Reboot Router - the optimal solution when encountering network problems. Router, like a computer, can encounter software errors or be overloaded after a period of continuous operation.
Withdrawing the power source, waiting about 30 seconds and then re- plunging will help the device erase the buffer memory and reset a new connection to the service provider, thereby fixing many small errors.
At the same time, the traffic lights on Router should ensure that newspaper lights such as "Power", "Internet" (or global fruit symbols), "wifi" are always bright and stable.
Router should also be placed in a central, airy position, away from large obstacles such as concrete walls, metal objects or electronic devices that can cause signal jamming (for example, microwaves, wireless phones).
Check actual speed and status from suppliers
If both the device and the device and the device device device work normally, the next direction for testing is the quality of the transmission from the Internet service provider (ISP). There are many free websites and applications that allow measuring the actual download and upload speeds of the transmission line.
Do this test and compare the results with the speed committed in the service contract. If the result is significantly lower (for example, an 80Mbps package but only measured 10-15Mbps), there is a high possibility of an incident from the network operator.
Check the supplier's website or application to see if there is a notice of overall network incident in the area or maintenance schedule for timely handling.
