1. Check your router's settings and make sure no other devices are using your internet connection.
2. Make sure that your router is properly connected to your modem.
3. Check your internet speed using an online speed test.
4. Check to see if your modem or router needs an upgrade.
5. Contact your internet service provider and ask them if there are any known issues in your area.
6. Try unplugging your router and modem, then plugging them back in after a few minutes.
7. Check to see if your modem is getting adequate ventilation.
8. See if changing the channel that your router is operating on helps.
