Troubleshooting Goscomb Technologies broadband speed problems

Before you begin troubleshooting the performance of your Goscomb Technologies internet connection, we suggest that you perform a Goscomb Technologies Internet Speedtest to benchmark your current internet speed.

Also find out the guaranteed minimum download speed that you have subscribed to from Goscomb Technologies.

You can find this information by checking your Goscomb Technologies broadband bill, your Goscomb Technologies contract or by contacting Goscomb Technologies.

Possible causes of Goscomb Technologies’s slow internet speed

Is it the Goscomb Technologies broadband that is running slow or is it your device (PC/laptop/phone)?

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

The performance problem could be due to the over-utilization of your system resources i.e Memory/CPU Processor and as opposed to a problem with Goscomb Technologies’s broadband connection.

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

On any other device, you should try restarting the device which hopefully should shut down all applications that may be hogging system resources.

Re-run the Goscomb Technologies Speed checker on your PC and your mobile phone to check how the speedtest results compare between the two devices.

This should hopefully give you some information to help determine whether the problem is with your device or the Goscomb Technologies broadband connection.

Is the wireless the cause of the issue?

The root cause of the performance problem could be your wireless as opposed to the Goscomb Technologies internet connection.

You can rule out the Wifi by connecting your computer directly to the Goscomb Technologies broadband router with an ethernet cable and then run the Goscomb Technologies Speed test again.

If the performance is better when you’re connected using an ethernet cable, this indicates that the problem may be with the Wi-Fi network.

A few other things to investigate:

Are the Wireless channels that you’re using for your Wifi network network (SSID) overlapping with the neighbours?
Is your Wifi network signal from the broadband router obstructed?
Does your performance get better when your are stood right in-front of the Goscomb Technologies broadband router?

Who is connected to my Wifi network?

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

Neighbours could be on your Wi-Fi network and eating up all your Goscomb Technologies speed by downloading, uploading or even streaming music or videos on your Goscomb Technologies internet connection! Worse than that, they may be carrying out illegal activities over your Goscomb Technologies broadband connection.

There are three apps that you can potentially use to analyse your Wi-Fi network to see who is connected:

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

The above applications scan your wireless network and produce a list of the connected devices.

How to see who’s on your Goscomb Technologies Wifi network

Do I need a Wifi network booster for my Goscomb Technologies broadband?

You may discover that you have Wi-Fi coverage gaps at your home, a Wifi extender also known as a wireless Booster may be the best fix to boost your wireless signal to cover any black holes.

Cheapest Wireless Signal Extenders

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

Position the wireless booster near the position where your wireless network signal from the Goscomb Technologies internet router is starting to become weaker.

Place it near where your wireless network signal is dropping down to two bars. Walk around your home with a smartphone to determine where this location is.

When was the last time you upgraded the Goscomb Technologies broadband router?

The Goscomb Technologies and broadband infrastructure, in general, are constantly upgraded to support new features and improve reliability as technology evolves. Always ensure that your Goscomb Technologies broadband internet router is running the latest software.

The majority of Goscomb Technologies broadband routers allow you to perform the software upgrade by simply logging into the Goscomb Technologies broadband router and simply clicking a button to start the upgrade.

If you can’t do this, contact Goscomb Technologies and they will be able to perform the upgrade for you or alternatively, guide you through performing the upgrade yourself.

As well as upgrading the software, if you have had the same hardware for a long time, it’s probably worth speaking to Goscomb Technologies to ask for a router upgrade.

Is the cause of the problem external to your home (at the exchange)?

This is probably the most common reason for Goscomb Technologies broadband performance problems in your property and is more common for internet broadband connections that are delivered using copper phone lines.

If you’re unsure if this is relevant in your case, you should contact Goscomb Technologies who will be able to run the relevant connection tests to see if there is a problem on the Goscomb Technologies broadband connection.

Is the issue because of Goscomb Technologies Internet congestion?
