What to do if the broadband is unstable

What should I do if my broadband is unstable? Summary of popular solutions across the network in 10 days

Recently, the instability of broadband networks has become a hot topic across the Internet, especially in the context of the surge in demand for working from home and online education. This article compiles the solutions that have been discussed frequently across the Internet in the past 10 days (as of November 2023), and provides you with practical guidance through structured data.

1. Common causes of unstable broadband (top 5 hotly discussed on the Internet)

2. Effective solution steps measured in the entire network

Step 1: Basic investigation (takes 3 minutes)

1. Restart the optical modem and router (the hotly discussed keyword "restart method" appears most frequently)
2. Check whether all network cable interfaces are plugged in tightly
3. Use your mobile phone to test WiFi signal strength (recommended APP: WiFi Analyzer)

Step 2: In-depth optimization (taking 10 minutes)

3. Operator service response data (statistics in the past 10 days)

4. Advanced solutions (top 3 discussion forums for technology enthusiasts)

1.Build a Mesh network: Multi-router networking solves the problem of dead ends (cost 500-2000 yuan)
2.Power Cat Extension: Transmit network signals through circuits (suitable for duplex units)
3.Commercial grade AP deployment: Enterprise-level wireless access point solution (TP-Link Omada series recommended)

5. Pseudo-scientific methods that we must be wary of

According to data from the Consumers Association platform, these methods have been proven to be ineffective:
• Wrap the router antenna with tin foil (measured signal attenuation 12%)
• Purchase the "Network Acceleration Artifact" software (100% scam software)
• Frequently changing DNS servers (may cause resolution delays)

6. Latest industry trends

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's new regulations in November require that all broadband operators must complete the deployment of a "24-hour network self-checking system" before 2024, and users can check line status in real time through the official APP. Currently, China Telecom has implemented pilot projects in 15 cities.

It can be seen from the above structured data that solving the problem of broadband instability requires systematic investigation. It is recommended that users follow the process of "basic troubleshooting → in-depth optimization → professional repair" to deal with it step by step to avoid blind operations that lead to complicated problems.
