    Check the physical connection - A loose cable or cord can often be the cause of a connection problem. Make sure everything is securely connected to the wall and device. 3. Reboot your modem/router - Sometimes the old "turn it off and on again" approach actually does work! Just wait about five minutes before turning it back on to make sure ...

  3. Bandwidth throttling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_throttling

    Limiting the speed of data sent by a data originator (a client computer or a server computer) is much more efficient than limiting the speed in an intermediate network device between client and server because while in the first case usually no network packets are lost, in the second case network packets can be lost / discarded whenever ingoing data speed overcomes the bandwidth limit or the ...

  4. List of countries by Internet connection speeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by...

    This is a list of countries by Internet connection speed for average and median data transfer rates for Internet access by end-users. The difference between average and median speeds is the way individual measurements are aggregated.

    Prompted by repeated consumer complaints, state Attorney General William Tong launched an investigation Monday into slow internet speeds, mediocre technical responses and hidden fees by the Altice ...

  6. Carrier-sense multiple access with collision detection

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-sense_multiple...

    This happens in Ethernet links because of the way nodes "back off" from the link and attempt to re-access it. In the Ethernet protocol, when a communication collision happens (when two users of the medium try to send at the same time), each user waits for a random period of time before re-accessing the link.

    The speed of light imposes a minimum propagation time on all electromagnetic signals. It is not possible to reduce the latency below = / where s is the distance and c m is the speed of light in the medium (roughly 200,000 km/s for most fiber or electrical media, depending on their velocity factor).

  8. Networking cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Networking_cable

    Networking cable is a piece of networking hardware used to connect one network device to other network devices or to connect two or more computers to share devices such as printers or scanners. Different types of network cables, such as coaxial cable , optical fiber cable , and twisted pair cables, are used depending on the network's topology ...

  9. Bufferbloat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bufferbloat

    The algorithms speed up the data transfer until packets start to drop, then slow down the transmission rate. Ideally, they keep adjusting the transmission rate until it reaches an equilibrium speed of the link. So that the algorithms can select a suitable transfer speed, the feedback about packet drops must occur in a timely manner.
