Internet is slow - the most common causes

Many users are accustomed to being online anytime, anywhere and being able to access the latest news and events. Internet connectivity has become increasingly fast-paced in recent years to ensure that the flood of information is well received by the end user. However, it can happen that the Internet suddenly becomes slow.

Why is the Internet slow?

In some cases, the provider can be to blame for slow data transmission. Most of the time, however, it is more likely to be the end user's fault. In the mobile sector, network coverage in Germany is not the best, which can lead to slower Internet speeds on your smartphone. If you only get Edge, for example, it can take a very long time for a page to load. If you are on WLAN at home and the pages still do not load, this can have several causes.

1. Possibly your router is not designed for so many WLAN connections. Try to connect as many devices as possible to the router by cable.
2. The slow speed can also have interference factors as a cause. Possibly the router is too far away from your mobile device and there are walls between you and the router. Kaufen Sie sich einen WLAN-Repeater, um dem Missstand entgegenzuwirken.
3. Der Router sollte sich weiterhin nicht direkt neben einem Aquarium oder einer anderen Wasserquelle befinden, da Wasser Strahlungen sehr stark blockiert.
4. Auch andere WLAN-Netze können Ihr eigenes stören. Befinden sich viele verschiedene WLAN-Netzwerke bei Ihnen im Haus, können sich diese untereinander negativ beeinflussen.
