How to troubleshoot Lawyers-Online broadband speed issues

Before you start troubleshooting the speed of your Lawyers-Online broadband connection, we suggest that you perform a Lawyers-Online Internet Speed Test to confirm your current broadband speed.

It is also a good idea confirm the guaranteed minimum download speed that you on your broadband package from Lawyers-Online.

You can find this info by checking a Lawyers-Online broadband bill, your Lawyers-Online contract or by contacting Lawyers-Online.

Possible causes of Lawyers-Online’s slow internet performance

Is it your Lawyers-Online internet connection that is running slow or is it your device (laptop/smartphone/PC)?

You may need to check the number of apps are running on your device.

The speed problem could be due to over-utilization of your device’s resources i.e RAM/CPU Processor and as opposed to a problem with Lawyers-Online’s broadband connection.

If you are on a laptop then you may use the task manager to check your CPU and RAM utilization.

On other device, you should try rebooting the device which hopefully will shut down all programs that may have been hogging your systems resources.

Run the Lawyers-Online Speed test on your computer and your mobile to see how the results compare between the two devices.

This should hopefully provide you with some info to work with in terms of whether the issue is with your PC/Smartphone or the Lawyers-Online broadband connection.

Is your Wifi the reason for the issues?

The cause of the performance problem could be your wireless and not the Lawyers-Online broadband connection.

You could rule out the wireless by connecting your computer directly into the Lawyers-Online broadband router using an ethernet cable and then run the Lawyers-Online Speed checker again.

If the result improves when you are connected via a network cable, this proves that the problem may be with the wireless.

A few other things to check:

Are the WiFi channels that you are using for your Wifi network network (SSID) overlapping with your neighbours?
Is your Wi-Fi network signal from the internet router obstructed?
Does the speed get better when you’re stood directly infront of the Lawyers-Online internet router?

Who’s connected to my wireless network?

Have you checked that your Wi-Fi network password has not been hacked? Do you have an open Wifi network? How strong is your wireless network password? It may be time to update it.

Others could be using your Wifi network and using up all your Lawyers-Online bandwidth by downloading, uploading or even streaming music or video over your Lawyers-Online broadband connection! Worse than that, they could be carrying out illegal activities using your Lawyers-Online broadband connection.

There are 3 applications to utlise to analyse your Wi-Fi network to see who’s connected:

Windows users can use Wireless network watcher
IOS users can use whoFi (who is on my Wifi)
Wireless troubleshooting application WiFi Analyzer

The above apps will scan your Wifi network and show you a list of the everything on your wifi.

How to see who is on your Lawyers-Online wireless network

Do I need a wireless network booster for my Lawyers-Online broadband?

If you find that you have Wi-Fi black spots at your property, a wireless network extender also known as a Wifi Booster is the best solution to increase your Wi-Fi signal to cover any black spots.

Cheapest Wifi Signal Boosters

The Wifi extender picks up the existing Wifi network signal as it is becoming weaker and re-transmits the wireless signal to extend it’s reach.

Position the Wi-Fi network booster near the position where your Wifi signal from your Lawyers-Online internet router is starting to become weaker.

Position it approximately where your wireless signal is dropping down to less than 2 bars. Walk around your house with a smartphone to find where this is.

When did you last upgrade the Lawyers-Online broadband router?

The Lawyers-Online and broadband infrastructure, in general, are constantly updated to provide new features and improve performance as technology evolves. Ensure that your Lawyers-Online broadband internet router is running on the latest software.

If you cannot do this, contact Lawyers-Online and they will perform the upgrade for you or guide you through the process.

As well as updating the software, if you have had hardware for a long time, it’s probably worth speaking to Lawyers-Online to request for a router upgrade.

Is the problem outside your property (at the exchange)?

This is probably the most likely cause for Lawyers-Online broadband performance problems in your home and is more common for broadband connections that are delivered using copper phone lines.

If you’re not sure if this is applicable to you, you should contact Lawyers-Online who should be able to carry out the relevant line tests to check if there is a problem on the Lawyers-Online internet connection.

Is the performance issue because of Lawyers-Online Internet congestion?
