Internet troubleshooting for Graeme

fixmytech — Wed, 20 Apr 2022 01:14:10 +0000

What was the problem with the internet?

Graeme came past the Fix My Tech office and explained that his internet would not work on their home computer. That morning one of our computer technicians was sent out to diagnose and solve the internet issues.

Upon arrival, our technician determined that the internet was working fine and the issue was with his computer. Other computers had an internet connection, phones were still working correctly. This made it clear that the problem was with the computer specifically rather than the wifi modem or the NBN.

What was the solution: Wifi Troubleshooting

Our technician began troubleshooting and found something had gone wrong with the wifi settings. The home computer could connect to some wifi but not others. Our technician then went into the connections settings for the iMac and reset and reconfigured the network settings for the home internet connection. The home internet was working again.

If you can’t connect to the internet call us and one of our friendly technicians will come out the same day to solve the issue. We have lots of experience dealing with Telstra networks, Optus networks, and many other providers. If you are having internet outages, connection issues, or NBN problems do not hesitate to contact us.

Here is a great article by Apple on the steps you could try at home before calling us:

How we can solve the issue remotely

In some cases, we are able to fix the issue via remote support by connecting to your computer. You are welcome to call one of our friendly technicians and they’ll be happy to guide you through some simple troubleshooting to get you back online and solve the problem. When using remote support it is often the case that the problem can be solved even faster in the event that a technician is unavailable to help you in your home. So rather than wait for someone to be available this can be a great option you get you up and running again as soon as possible. Check out our post regarding Adam in Caulfield South

A weak WiFi signal will cause drop outs and slow internet. If your modem router is on the other end of the house then you probably need a signal booster. We find a “mesh” system with 3 boosters working as a team fixes this issue.

With more people using the WiFi at the same time a mesh system is the answer.

Affordable Mesh systems are great as they spread the load and make sure everyone in the house gets a decent connection. Check out our post regarding Easy steps to configure Gmail in Outlook

Residential client was seeking support for slow internet and wireless connection at his premises. The symptoms were:

Internet dropping out
WiFi running slow
VPN interfering with the internet connection.

The modem needed to be constantly restarted and was an inconvenience.

After a short investigation we installed powerline adapters and made the connection hard wired. The wireless proved to be unstable at this property. We also organised an NBN upgrade as the old DSL connection was obsolete.
