Why is my internet connection so slow?
Slow internet can be caused by multiple devices, outdated router firmware, or interference from other networks.
When your internet slows down, there are several factors to check. First, disconnect any unnecessary devices, as too many can bog down the connection. Place your router in a central location to avoid weak signals, and ensure it’s away from other electronics that may cause interference. Check your router firmware—outdated firmware can impact speed, and updates often improve performance. Use a Wi-Fi analyzer app to see if other networks in your area are causing interference and switch to a less crowded channel if possible. These adjustments typically improve connection speed significantly.
