Internet, WiFi and network: fixes for slow connections and dropouts

When the internet is not working properly, the same problems usually come up: the connection is slow even though you pay for high speed, WiFi drops now and then or disappears in one part of the apartment, a device is connected to the network but has no internet access, a DNS error appears, IP addresses conflict or the VPN cannot connect. There is also weak signal in distant rooms, setting up a mesh system and a network drive that suddenly disappears.

In this category you will find practical step by step guides, in plain English, for home users and small and medium businesses. Each fix explains what to check first, which settings to change and how to avoid the problem coming back, without unnecessary technical jargon.
