Introduction
We’ve all been there—your Wi-Fi is acting up, your Zoom call freezes, or your favorite show won’t load. Before you pick up the phone to call tech support, there are a few simple troubleshooting steps you can try. In fact, many internet issues at home can be fixed in under 10 minutes with basic know-how.
This guide from SPEED-NET LTD will show you how to fix common internet problems by yourself.
1️⃣ Check if It’s Just One Device or All
Before anything else:
-
Try loading a site on another phone or laptop.
-
If only one device is affected, the issue might be device-related, not your internet.
✅ Fix: Restart that device or forget and reconnect to the Wi-Fi.
2️⃣ Restart Your Router
The classic fix still works!
🌀 Just unplug the router, wait 15–30 seconds, and plug it back in.
This clears temporary errors and resets your connection to the network.
3️⃣ Look for the Lights
Most routers have LED lights showing the internet status.
-
Green or blue = all good
-
Red, orange, or blinking = problem
✅ Fix: If your Internet/DSL light is off or red, it may be a line issue or your subscription has expired.
4️⃣ Check Your Subscription Status
At SPEED-NET LTD, subscriptions auto-expire monthly unless renewed.

5️⃣ Avoid Overloading Your Network
Too many devices streaming, downloading, or gaming at once? This can slow things down.
✅ Fix:
-
Disconnect unused devices.
-
Schedule big downloads at night.
-
Consider upgrading your plan if your usage has increased.
6️⃣ Switch Frequency Bands (2.4GHz vs. 5GHz)
Modern routers broadcast two types of Wi-Fi:
-
2.4GHz: Longer range, slower speed
-
5GHz: Faster speed, shorter range
✅ Fix: If you’re close to the router, use 5GHz for better performance. If you’re far, switch to 2.4GHz.
7️⃣ Check for Obstructions or Interference
Metal objects, concrete walls, and even microwaves can weaken your signal.
✅ Fix: Place your router:
-
Away from walls and appliances
-
High up (like on a shelf)
-
In a central location in the house
