Hello Friends,
Today I am again with you with the query of most of my friends Regarding the Network Latency. Most of the Organization in the industry are facing the slow internet Speed Issue, when they inquire from the ISP he said the Speed is fine there is some local issue at your end.
So How we come to know where is the gap and why we are getting slow Internet speed in the Sharing Enviornment. So let us start with the steps how we can diagnose and fix the Problem.
First Thing First
Before blaming the ISP we should confirm that our internal Network is working fine with the help of the following steps
1. You need to check the latency between the firewall/router through which your internet is distributed and the working PC. You may check it with the PING command. In local LAN it always should be less then 0(depends on the location of the firewall). If it is not then there is something wrong in your network.
2. Monitoring firewall- This is a very impotent to understand the firewall.Firewall is the entry and exit point of the network.Hence one can read the Logs of the firewall and can Analyze the same where the Internet Bandwidh got consumed.
3. Schedule the Time for Antivirus/Software Patch Update-In many cases it has been found that due to the Antivirus defination Updates and Application Patches update in working time which is running in the background and not known to the user, the Internet speed goes down hence it is advisable to Schedule the update of the same in non-productive time.
4. Monitoring Antivirus Log- In most of the cases it has been found that due to the virus in the network , the network got chocked hence it is necessary to scan your System in the network on daily basis and Monitor the Antivirus Logs to maintain the speed and reliability of the network.
5. Control the Usage of Internet- one can control the Usage of Internet by defining the Policy in the Firewall depending on the Management Decision.
6. Now even after you are not getting the Speed upto your satisfaction then terminate the ISP provided Internet Connection to the Local PC and Verify the same.
7. Last but not Least , The communication Channel like Switch, Wire, Connector etc. play a vital roal in the network hence you should make it sure that these comunication channel should be dust free and you may also consider to replace the switches from mbps to gbps speed.
