10 Best Ways To Increase Your Internet Speed


So you guys are tired of your low Internet Speed? So , I'm here to help you getting rid of your low internet speed. I will show you the 10 awesome ways to increase your INTERNET SPEED!

Before getting started , let's check our current internet speed . So ,now the question arises that HOW TO CHECK YOUR INTERNET SPEED!?

You can do this by going to Speedtest.net




This is my Internet Speed It seems very low , but many people will have a much greater speed like the people living in Australia and other countries due to Fast Cable Internet .


1. Check for on-system interference
Sometimes your antivirus or other programs can interfere with your internet speeds with affects the bandwidth also. This is really frustrating but you can figure out by simply switching things off one at a time like disabling firewall or anything and then running a speed test again. Please note I won’t be responsible for any viruses or spyware you pick up while doing this. You should always have good virus protection before you do any experiments with your computer .
2. Scan for viruses
The next thing you need to do is make sure that no virus itself is causing you to slow down your Internet Speed. Sometimes viruses can live on your computer and suck resources away from what you are doing thus slowing down your speeds of your system.
3. Test a different modem/router
The biggest cause of slowed down internet is a bad and old modem. For ages I was using a BSNL modem that I thought was absolutely fantastic. I was having frequent internet drop outs and blaming them on my ISP. Finally I changed to a new NETGEAR N150 modem and speeds went up and the drop outs stopped. The problem? The old Billion modem wasn’t equipped for ADSL2+. Rookie mistake. Make sure your modem is suited to the internet plan that you are on which will also be economic .
4. Check your filters
If you have your internet connected to a phone line that also has a telephone on it then you will need to make sure you have good quality filters installed on your line. These are little plugs that you attach to the phone line and they help filter out the disturbances. Here is a photo of one of mine.

Now, these also need to be different for the different types of internet. If you have ADSL2+ or cable make sure you have the appropriate filter.
5. Try getting rid of your cordless phone
Most of the people disagree with this point but I have found that cordless phones slow down or interfere with my internet even with filters. People generally don't agree with me in this point . It is worth doing an isolation test by removing your phones and replacing them with different ones (borrow a friend’s or any other relative) and see whether you get better results.
6. Plug in
Wi-Fi is nice but wireless internet is often a bit slower than if you plug in to your modem. Try getting that chord out of the box and plugging straight into the modem, especially if it is your desktop computer and you don’t need to move it around very often.
7. Check for external interference
I bet most of you have an iPhone, iPad, sound system and at least one other form of electronic device in your modem area. Am I right? Well, if so, then you need to check to see whether these things are causing electromagnetic interference or any other interference. Try moving speakers out of the way and getting other electronic devices out of your modem space.
8. Check for Foxtel or other types of TV
Old Foxtel boxes can cause interference for your internet, even if you aren’t using them. If your net speed is slower than it should be and you can’t figure out why, it might be an idea to go for a walk around your house and see if you have a Foxtel (cable TV) box that you didn’t know was there. It could be from a past owner. If so, call up and make sure it is disconnected totally.
9. Shorten and replace cables
The length of your cables and their structure can affect speeds. Try replacinreplace cables
The length of your cables and their structure can affect speeds. Try replacing old phone cables, sockets and lines and instead use shorter and newer ones. This can often make a big difference.
10. Have you tried turning it off and on again?
The last suggestion is often the most powerful one. Turn off your modem for one minute and turn it on again. It is called power cycling and can often flush out a bunch of problems that affect your speed. If you are really brave you can even reconfigure your modem with a new password as this can often refresh your settings at the end of your ISP
