If your internet speed is slow, there are various reasons for the slowdown. Problems such as the condition of electronic devices, problems with the wired or wireless router, problems with the modem, problems with the Internet browser, problems with the telecommunication company, LAN card, cable line, CAT type, etc. may occur. To improve internet speed, you need to check various factors that slow it down. It is a good idea to measure your internet speed first.
