If you are using a laptop computer wireless LAN like wireless LAN is still more convenient and somewhat convenient, but suddenly the communication speed suddenly drops abnormally, until now you can see the net comfortably Although it could be done, there should be times when it is getting late as if something is clogged up and it is irritated.

How can we solve these problems?New York TimesSince there was such a question and answer on the page of, we tried listing solutions based on experience based on it.

Details are as below.
The solution is mainly as follows.

1: Restart
Stop the power supply of the wireless LAN router etc, wait for several minutes, and try resetting once. Since it is often solved by this, unexpectedly, let's try restarting the wireless LAN router first. Easy, easy, and effective. However, if you continue to stop the power for a long time, all of the settings may be reset and return to the initial setting, so please read the manual attached to the product carefully.

2: Update the firmware
If you say that it will be delayed even after rebooting, there is a possibility of some bug or failure, so go to the page of the manufacturer of the wireless LAN router or wireless LAN card you are using, search by your model name, find something new Let's check for firmware updates etc. Looking at the update history, there are quite a lot of things such as "Improvement of communication speed reduction in case of ~~" or "Improvement of speed degradation when long time use". Rebooting improves the speed, but if you think that the speed will fall again after several days, you better doubt it.

3: Radio waves are interfering
There may be something interfering, such as a cordless phone with the same radio frequency, a microwave oven, wireless speakers and headphones using the wireless, a wireless keyboard and mouse, etc. Therefore, try changing the location of the wireless LAN router and let's see the situation. Especially when the speed slowly declines after buying new home appliances and products, obviously the cause is that product, so there are times when it is improving to blatantly if you take a distance. The following article covers the case that a microwave oven was the culprit.

The last one: The wireless LAN router is really broken
If speed does not improve whatever you do, it is one of the ways that you go to repair by daring. In fact, there were also cases such as that the wiring in the inside was burned with heat due to the use for a long time and the connection was defective, and the plug part was coming out. In the case that there is not enough attachment to repair, I think that it is "ant" to say frankly that it will make it a new wireless LAN router etc. on this machine.
