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.

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Reboot your devices and clear your browser’ cache.
  5. 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.
