Do you work from home and is the internet your basis for everything you need to finish during the day for work? Do you listen to lectures online? Are you taking a break from hard work or school and watching your favorite series right now? <\/span><\/p>\n

Whatever you do today, at this moment, the internet has become a mandatory part of your life. <\/span>Frequent internet cut-offs<\/span><\/a> can erase some essentials of your job. But not only that – they can also prevent you from handing over a task on time. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Internet<\/p>\n

Are You Wondering Why Is That Happening?<\/h2>\n

Low download speed<\/span><\/a> can be one of the reasons for that type of problem. It might be inadequate to fulfill any action taken. A file that is not fully downloaded due to low speed can cause overload and disconnection of the Internet<\/a> for a few seconds. <\/span><\/p>\n

Broken cables are also one of the reasons. Always check if cables are connected properly or if the cable tore apart. <\/span><\/p>\n

The overloaded router can cause that kind of issue. If there are too many devices connected to the same network, the router could overload.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, large media files, like 4K videos, can be too big for your current internet speed.<\/span><\/p>\n

You mustn’t have any problems with your connection as it can impact your daily activities. But don’t worry! If you happen to stumble upon such a problem, we will help you solve the issue in a few simple steps:<\/span><\/p>\n

Restart Your Router<\/h3>\n

That would be the simplest step, so we put it first. There are two important things in that step. The first one would be the <\/span>\u201cPOWER<\/strong>\u201d<\/span> button that will do the main job. After turning the router off, you should keep it like that for a minute before booting it again. And that would be the second important part of the first step. <\/span><\/p>\n

To make sure that you did the first step successfully, you can <\/span>move the router to another location<\/span><\/a>. It often happens that the router cannot give a signal and give you functional connection when it\u2019s behind something else. If you are lucky, that may be the only thing you need to do to solve the problem, so well done! But if you are not, the next steps will help. <\/span><\/p>\n

Change Link Speed<\/h3>\n

Since we put low link speed as the primary reason for your problem, for it does not happen again, you need to speed up your link speed. You can do it in six short steps: <\/span><\/p>\n

In the search bar you should type <\/span>\u201cControl Panel<\/strong>\u201d<\/span> and by hitting on the <\/span>ENTER<\/strong> button, your window should be displayed. <\/span><\/p>\n

The next option that should be found in <\/span>\u201cInternet and Network<\/strong>\u201d<\/span>. Click on it and choose <\/span>\u201cProperties<\/strong>\u201d.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

After that, you should notice the <\/span>\u201cConfigure<\/strong>\u201d<\/span> option. Now click on the <\/span>\u201clink speed<\/strong>\u201d <\/span>and select <\/span>\u201cAdvanced<\/strong>\u201d<\/span> Well done, you have come to the sixth step which is very simple. You just need to close all the windows and get back to the first step of the whole text to check if you have succeeded!<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Re-check Your Drivers<\/h3>\n

There is a possibility that your internet will be disconnected for a few seconds if you do not have the latest drivers installed. Drivers can generate other problems on your computer, but they can also cause a brief disappearance of the internet. <\/span><\/p>\n

So, you should always check if you have installed the latest drivers on your device.  If it turns out you haven\u2019t installed the latest version, don\u2019t worry! We will help you do it in a few simple steps:<\/span><\/p>\n

Before you do anything, first check the model of your router. Once you have checked that, you can go to the next step and find your router model\u2019s website and install the latest driver\u2019s version.<\/span><\/p>\n
