Restarting your router or modem can often fix slow internet speeds, too — I do it every two to three months for an internet boost. Slow router performance could be due to a caching issue or a bug in the router’s firmware. Unplug the router to clear these out andboost your wireless c...
In Wi-Fi access scenarios, rate limiting may be configured to protect network bandwidth resources, which in turn affects the Wi-Fi speed of STAs. Therefore, upon slow Wi-Fi access, check whether the WLAN rate limiting function is configured on an AR router. ...
Therefore, upon slow Wi-Fi access, check whether the WLAN rate limiting function is configured on an AR router. When a loop occurs on the wired network, the device receives a large number of multicast or broadcast packets. As a result, the device cannot process wireless packets, affec...
As with streaming, it is possible to use a relatively slow internet connection to play games online — but, as with streaming, you may find that you don’t enjoy it much! Minimum internet speed requirements for gaming are usually 4 to 8 Mbps, but remember that other devices on your netwo...
Some ISPs deliberately slow down certain types of internet traffic (which is called “throttling”) while others slow down connections if too much data is downloaded in one month. They do this bylimiting your bandwidth. You canperform internet speed teststo determine if your ISP is slowing down...
Even if your ISP is delivering the speeds you want, the number of devices simultaneously connecting to your network could give you some trouble that could ultimately slow down your connection. With everything from laptops and smartphones to TVs and connected appliances relying on a steady stream ...

If you find that the internet on you windows laptop or computer is slow, but fine on another device, this may be due to background programs consuming valuable bandwidth. These can include software updates, cloud syncing, or malware. Managing your background applications, and disabling unnecessary...
How to Tell if My Internet Is Being Throttled? The FCC raised the fixed speed benchmark from 25 Mbps to 100 Mbps. If you have slow speeds or intermittent connectivity, there’s a chance you’re experiencing ISP throttling, especially if you’ve ruled out other issues. The only way to de...
Slow start prevents the transmission rate from increasing rapidly. When the throughput reaches the upper limit, the size of TCP sliding window decreases by half, and the data transmission rate declines rapidly. As a result, session traffic exhibits a sawtooth pattern and is bursty. TCP always ...
