How to Fix Slow Wi-Fi at Home
Slow Wi-Fi is usually caused by one of three things: router placement, channel congestion, or an overloaded device. Start by moving your router to a central, elevated location, away from walls, microwaves, and cordless phones which all interfere with 2.4 GHz signals. Log into your router settings and switch to the 5 GHz band for devices that are close by, since it's faster even though it doesn't travel as far. If you have a large home, a mesh Wi-Fi system like Google Nest or Eero is far more effective than a single router with extenders. Finally, restarting your router once a week clears cached connections and often makes a noticeable difference. If you've tried all of this and still have problems, the issue is often with your ISP or modem. Call us and we'll diagnose it for free over the phone.
