Many factors can affect speed performance including the age of the device,
existing software, and any viruses or malware. Follow the steps below to improve
your internet performance.


FACTORS AFFECTING INTERNET PERFORMANCE

Consider the following:

 * File-Sharing Programs: File-sharing programs like BitTorrent use huge amounts
   of data, which can lead to slow connection speeds.
 * Viruses/Adware/Malware: Download Security Suite to check your computer for
   harmful software.
 * Firewalls: A firewall monitors all network traffic on your computer, so a
   strict firewall can lead to slow internet speeds. Try restarting your
   firewall to its default settings.
 * Power Outage: Find out if there's an outage in your area.
 * System Memory (RAM): Close any programs not in use to increase your
   computer’s performance. You may also consider upgrading your computer’s RAM.


RESTART YOUR EQUIPMENT

Restarting your equipment solves most problems, whether you have a slow
connection or no connection at all.

To restart your equipment online:

 1. Sign in.
 2. Select the Your Services tab and then the Internet sub tab.
 3. Choose your equipment from the list.
 4. Select Restart Equipment.
 5. Select Restart Equipment again.


REBOOT YOUR EQUIPMENT

 1. Unplug the power cord or remove the battery from the equipment that is
    experiencing slow connection issues.
 2. Allow at least 60 seconds before reconnecting it.
 3. If you're using a wireless adapter, such as a USB adapter for Ethernet or
    WiFi, unplug the adapter, and allow at least 10 seconds before plugging it
    back in.


RESTART YOUR DEVICE

Restart your computer or mobile device for best results.

ki-info-circle-f Icon
Note: For further support, refer to your equipment’s user manual.


MAKE SURE YOU:

 * Are using the latest version of your browser.
 * Disconnect any devices not in use (i.e. iPad, mobile, etc.).
 * Meet the following system minimum requirements:

PC Minimum Requirements


 * Operating system: Windows 8 or later
 * Network Capability:
   * WiFi requires an 802.11 N router for speeds up to 300 Mbps. Speeds higher
     than 300 Mbps require an 802.11 AC router.
   * 1,000 Mbps (1 Gbps) full duplex Network Interface Card (NIC).




Mac Minimum Requirements


 * Operating system: OS X 10.6 or a later version of macOS
 * Network Capability:
   * WiFi requires an 802.11 N router for speeds up to 300 Mbps. Speeds higher
     than 300 Mbps require an 802.11 AC router.
   * 1,000 Mbps (1 Gbps) full duplex Network Interface Card (NIC).






TAKE A SPEED TEST

For best results, use a wired connection.

Run Speed Test
 * Wired Speed Test: It’s best to test your speed first using a wired device,
   such as a computer connected to the modem with a Cat 5e or higher Ethernet
   cable (It should be labeled on your cable.) If it's not possible to test your
   speed with a wired connection, there are several apps you can download to
   test your speed over a wireless connection.
 * Restart your computer or device.

Note: Speeds vary depending on the location and package. Find out if you're
eligible to upgrade your internet speeds.
