Hardware Issues
There are instances that you are experiencing no internet connection only to the device that you are using. Check other devices that are connected to your internet connection. If these devices have no problem connecting to the internet then the problem is in your device. For you to solve this, do the following steps:
Check the router and see if the power button is on. If you are using a LAN connection for your laptop, then make sure that the wire is really connected properly. Ensure that all the wires are not pulled or broken. You can replace your cable wires with new ones so that your computer can quickly connect to the internet.
You can also turn the modem off for a couple of minutes then your router. After a minuter or two, you can turn on both modem and router and wait for their lights to sort out. Turn on your computer after thirty seconds and see if it has connection now.
Software Issues
One of the big reasons why you are experiencing no internet connection because of the issues on your software.
For PC/laptop: Inspect if your computer’s driver is up to date. The problem with no internet access on your PC or laptop is because the drivers are outdated to connect with your computer’s operating system. If there is an exclamation point in device management, then surely this is a computer’s driver problem. Look for new drivers from the website of your device manufacturer (for example, if you are using Acer laptop then go to Acer’s website), and try updating all network drivers.
You can try to reboot your computer also as this is an easy way to fix your “no internet” issue. Rebooting your device can clean out any useless background programs and files on your hard drive. You can search on Google how to reboot your device properly, whether you are using Windows or Mac OS.
For your mobile device: If you are using a smartphone or tablet then make sure that the Wi-Fi is on. Then enter the password of the Wi-Fi (if enabled) correctly. Make sure also that the Airplane Mode is off as this controls your phone’s wireless radio. Also, do not enable the “Do Not Disturb” feature on your phone.
If your phone still has no internet access, then reset your mobile phone’s network. You can access this one on your phone’s settings then look for “Reset Network Settings” and tap it. Once you verified the network reset, your phone will restart on its own. And if your phone is finally on then check if the issue has been sorted out.
Internet Speed Check
If you have access to your internet but the service is very slow, then you can “speed test” to see how fast it is. This will also give you solutions on how to resolve some issues. Especially if you are experiencing a very slow internet connection.
There are many speed tests online, just click on the server of your internet. This will test your connection like how fast is your download/upload speed and your internet’s ping.
If your download/upload speed and ping are very high, it means that you have a very weak internet connection. It is time to upgrade your internet’s Mbps so you can enjoy a fast internet connection.
