To fix slow internet, several effective strategies can be applied depending on the cause of the slowdown:

• Restart your router and modem by unplugging them for 5-10 seconds to clear their cache.
• Reduce the number of devices using the network simultaneously, as each device consumes bandwidth.
• Use a wired Ethernet connection instead of Wi-Fi for faster and more stable speeds.
• Move your device closer to the router or relocate the router to a central, unobstructed location.
• Disable Windows features that could slow internet, like Peer-to-Peer Update, Windows Auto-Tuning, and Large Send Offload if using Windows.
• Update your network drivers, router firmware, and device software regularly.
• Limit background data usage by turning off auto-updates on apps and devices.
• If speeds remain slow, consider upgrading your internet plan or contacting your internet service provider.

These tips combine hardware, software, and network settings optimizations to improve internet speed effectively.
