Overview

In this guide, we’ll help you troubleshoot some of the most common internet connection issues. Whether your Wi-Fi keeps dropping or your connection is slow, follow these steps to get back online.

Steps to Resolve Internet Issues:

1. Check the Router:
   Make sure your router is plugged in and turned on. Restart it by unplugging for 30 seconds, then plugging it back in.

2. Test Your Device Connection:
   Check if other devices (like phones or tablets) can connect to the Wi-Fi. If they can, the issue might be with your device.

3. Restart Your Device:
   Restart the device experiencing the issue (computer, phone, etc.) to refresh the connection.

4. Check for Updates:
   Ensure your device’s operating system and network drivers are up to date. Outdated software can cause connectivity issues.

5. Contact Your Internet Provider:
   If none of the above steps work, contact your internet provider to check if there are any outages in your area.
