Disable Your VPN

If you work from home and have enabled your VPN, it’s going to affect your broadband speeds while on video or VoLTE calls. Make sure you disable it before making any zoom calls, uploading files, or hosting video conferences. Use LAN Cables

Just like upgrading your broadband internet plans, upgrading your router hardware and using LAN cables will make a significant difference in boosting upload and download speeds. Not all ethernet LAN cables are equal and if you are using old ethernet LAN cables, upgrade to Cat-6 and Cat-6a cables for attaining lightning-fast speed. LAN cables help in diverting the maximum bandwidth of the connection to the device plugged-in. This can help you avoid getting slower speeds due to multiple devices being connected and eating up the bandwidth of the connection. Plan your internet usage

If you are experiencing a lag or

buffering

, try to plan your family’s internet usage. It is recommended that you avoidstreaming HD contentwhile video conferencing. Also, you can plan & manage your internet activities that require high bandwidth - downloading or uploading large files outside peak hours.
