You count on your internet service to deliver a quality online experience, but unfortunately, you may not be getting it. Let’s take a look at four signs that indicate you need better internet.
Slow Speed
If your service lags and is inconsistent, you probably need more speed. Run a speed test to find out your actual upload and download speeds. Spoiler alert… they may be even slower than you thought.
Router Restarts
Are you frequently restarting your router? While many sources recommend rebooting your router every month or two, doing so weekly or more often is likely a sign your internet service is just not fast enough, rather than the router not working properly.
Dead Zone
Does your home have the dreaded “dead zone,” where your internet only has a weak or lifeless signal, rendering it useless to stream music, TV, and movies or even check your email?
A dead zone should be rare with today’s Wi-Fi technology properly set up and situated. If you find a dead zone in a particular area of your home, it may be time to improve your internet service to get a stronger signal everywhere.
Streaming Struggles
If you struggle with buffering and pixelation when streaming video or your family has difficulty streaming when using multiple devices at the same time, your internet service has insufficient speed and bandwidth.
