It's frustrating for everyone when your business's Wi-Fi isn't fast enough. This can result in less work being done.
Here are five quick ways to test and improve your Wi-Fi speed.
- Run a speed test and record the results. Use the same speed test service each time to ensure that you're comparing apples to apples.
- Next, find out who is doing what. If everyone on your team is watching YouTube and uploading large files, it will slow down everyone's Wi-Fi.
- Reboot your Wi-Fi router. Turn it off and wait a minute then turn the Wi-Fi router back on. Run a speed test again after all the devices have reconnected.
- Reboot your devices and clear your browser’ cache.
- Lastly, check which devices are connected to your network. Tell your IT person right away if you notice anything that you don't recognize.
If your company provides free Wi-Fi to the general public, make sure that this is a different network from the one your staff uses.
