When you're trying to stream a video, participate in a video call, or simply browse the internet without any disruptions, slow Wi-Fi can be extremely annoying. I've experienced my share of times when everything starts buffering or loading slowly out of the blue, leaving me to wonder what went wrong. I've discovered a few easy solutions over the years that usually help me get faster Wi-Fi, and anyone can try them.

The first thing I always do is restart my router. It sounds too simple, but sometimes your router just needs a quick refresh to fix small bugs or clear up network congestion. I unplug it, wait for about 30 seconds, and then plug it back in. This alone has solved many of my speed issues.


Next, I check where my router is placed. I initially kept mine behind some furniture in a corner close to the floor. However, I discovered that routers function best when positioned high, in the middle of the house, and away from metal objects and walls. Just moving it to a better spot improved my signal strength in different rooms.


I also set a limit on the number of connected devices. A TV, phone, laptop, smart bulbs, and even a Wi-Fi speaker were all online at the same time, and I once noticed that my Wi-Fi was crawling. The speed instantly increased after I unplugged the ones I wasn't using.



I also found that changing Wi-Fi channels was effective. Routers can operate on various channels, and occasionally your neighbors may be using the same one, which could lead to interference. I changed the channel after logging into my router's settings, which usually involves entering 192.168.1.1 into the browser. It had a significant impact and took less than five minutes.


I keep my router’s firmware updated. Manufacturers release updates that fix bugs and improve performance. I once ignored a firmware update for months, and when I finally installed it, my connection became more stable overnight.


These fixes might seem small, but they’ve saved me a lot of headaches. Now whenever my Wi-Fi gets slow, I go through this checklist. Most times, I get everything back up and running smoothly in just a few minutes.

Slow Wi-Fi can be very annoying, especially when you're working online, streaming your favorite show, or in the middle of a video call. I've experienced it myself, and it's frequently puzzling why your connection suddenly slows down and you're left staring at a loading icon. I found some simple yet efficient ways to speed up my Wi-Fi after a few trial-and-error sessions, and I've found that they generally work. These suggestions can significantly improve your internet speed and are simple to put into practice.I always restart my router as soon as my Wi-Fi starts to lag. Although it may seem easy, it's frequently a fast fix for minor bugs or network congestion. The router can reset and refresh, removing any short-term problems, if it is unplugged for 30 seconds and then replugged. The frequency with which this step fixes the issue with minimal effort is astounding.I then carefully examined the location of my router. I initially hid it in a corner behind furniture in the hopes that it would blend in. But I quickly discovered that the router's location greatly affects signal strength. Routers work best when placed high, preferably in the middle of your house, far from metal objects and walls that could disrupt the signal. My home's Wi-Fi coverage significantly improved after I relocated mine to a higher, more open location. My connection's speed and dependability have significantly improved as a result of this minor adjustment.
