Quick First Checks
Restart your web browser.
Close all browser windows and tabs.
Re-open the browser and sign back in.
Restart your PC or laptop.
Save any work.
Restart your device, then try again.
If performance is still slow, continue with the connection checks below.
Check Your Internet Speed
Open your browser and go to a speed test site (for example, search for “speedtest” in your browser).
Click Go (or the equivalent button) to start the test.
When the test completes, review your download and upload speeds.
📌 Guideline
It is generally recommended that both download and upload speeds are above 10 Mbps.
If your speeds are lower than this, it may indicate an issue with your internet provider.
If speeds are consistently low:
Contact your internet service provider (ISP) for further assistance.
Check Your Ping (Latency)
Click the Start button on your PC.
Type CMD and click Command Prompt to open it.
In the Command Prompt window, type:
ping www.google.com -t
Press Enter.
Let this run for around one minute.
Review the output:
If you see “Request timed out” entries, or
If you see any time values higher than 100ms,
…this indicates a potential issue with your local internet connection.
In this case, you should contact your local IT team to investigate.
When you’re finished, press Ctrl + C to stop the ping test.
