Probable causes of Warwickshire Live’s slow broadband performance
Is it your Warwickshire Live internet connection that is slow or is it your device (PC/laptop/phone)?
You need to check how many applications are currently running on your device.
The performance issue may be due to over-utilization of your device’s resources e.g Memory/CPU Processor and not an issue with Warwickshire Live’s broadband connection.
If you’re on a laptop then you may use the task manager to check your CPU and Memory utilization.
On any other device, you should try restarting the device which hopefully will kill all applications that may have been hogging system resources.
Run the Warwickshire Live Speed checker on your personal computer and your mobile phone to check how the speed test results compare between the 2 devices.
Hopefully this should give you more info to help determine if the issue lies with your PC/Smartphone or the Warwickshire Live internet connection.

Is your Wifi network the reason for the issues?
The cause of the performance problem could be your wireless and not the Warwickshire Live broadband internet connection.
You can rule out the Wi-Fi network by simply connecting your PC directly to the Warwickshire Live broadband router using a network cable and run the Warwickshire Live Speed checker again.
If the speed improves when you’re connected via a network cable, this indicates that the issue may be with the wireless network.
A number of things to look further into:
- Are the Wireless channels that you’re using for your Wi-Fi network network (SSID) overlapping with your neighbours?
- Is your Wifi signal from the internet router obstructed?
- Does your performance get better when you’re stood directly infront of the Warwickshire Live internet router?
Who is connected to my Wi-Fi network?
Have you checked that your Wifi network password has not been shared? Do you have an un-secured Wifi network? How secure is your Wi-Fi network password? It could be time to change it.
Neighbors could be on your Wi-Fi network and eating up all the Warwickshire Live speed by downloading, uploading or even streaming music or videos over your Warwickshire Live broadband connection! Worse still, they could be carrying out illegal activities on your Warwickshire Live internet connection.
There are three apps to utlise to analyze your Wi-Fi network to check who is connected:
- Microsoft Windows users can use Wireless network watcher
- MAC users can use whoFi (who is on my Wifi)
- wifi network troubleshooting application WiFi Analyzer
The above apps analyse your Wi-Fi network and show you a list of the devices connected.
Should I get a wireless network booster for my Warwickshire Live broadband?
If you find that you have Wifi coverage holes at your house, a wireless extender aka a Wi-Fi Booster may be the best fix to boost your Wifi signal to cover any black spots.
The Wifi booster picks up the existing wireless signal as it is starting to become weaker and re-transmits the Wifi signal to extend it’s coverage.
Position the wireless booster/extender near the position where your wireless network signal from the Warwickshire Live broadband router is becoming weaker.
Place it near where your Wi-Fi network signal is dropping down to 2 bars. Walk around your house with a tablet to find where this is.
When was the last time you upgraded the Warwickshire Live internet router?
The Warwickshire Live and broadband infrastructure, in general, are frequently upgraded to support new features and improve performance as technology evolves. Ensure that the Warwickshire Live broadband internet router is running on the latest software.
Most Warwickshire Live broadband routers will allow you to perform the software update by logging on the Warwickshire Live broadband router and simply clicking a button to start the update.
If you cannot do this, contact Warwickshire Live and they will perform the upgrade for you or alternatively, guide you through the process.
As well as upgrading the software, if you have had the same hardware for a long period, it’s probably worth speaking to Warwickshire Live to ask for a hardware upgrade.
Is the problem external to your home (at the exchange)?
This is probably the most common cause for Warwickshire Live broadband performance problems in your area and it’s more common for internet broadband connections that are delivered using copper phone lines.
If you’re unsure if this is applicable to you, contact Warwickshire Live who should be able to carry out the relevant connection checks to see if there is a problem on the Warwickshire Live broadband connection.
Is the issue due to Warwickshire Live Internet congestion?
If you’re finding that the Warwickshire Live internet connection speed in your area is slows down during certain periods i.e. over weekends or evenings, it may be because of congestion during peak times.
You should contact Warwickshire Live to check your guaranteed speed.
