Why Is My Internet Slow?
The most common culprits — found in real Tennessee homes.
Wi-Fi Interference
Your neighbors' routers compete on the same 2.4 GHz channel. Switch to 5 GHz or use a Wi-Fi analyzer to find a clear channel.
Rented Modem is Too Old
ISPs rent modems forever. A DOCSIS 3.0 modem on a Gigabit plan is your bottleneck. Upgrade to DOCSIS 3.1.
Bad Splitter in the Attic
Old 2-way audio splitters degrade cable signal significantly. Replace with a proper 1 GHz cable splitter rated for broadband.
ISP Throttling
Many ISPs (especially Xfinity) throttle streaming services after you hit a data cap. Check your monthly usage in the app.
Double NAT
Running two routers (ISP gateway + your own) causes Double NAT. Put the ISP box in Bridge Mode to fix gaming latency.
Too Many Devices
Smart TVs, security cameras, and gaming consoles all share bandwidth. QoS settings on your router can prioritize gaming.
