Home internet speed keeps going fast and slow? After the broadband technician explained, I finally understood

If you ask what we can't live without most these days? Huahua answers: the internet.
I wonder if everyone feels the same way as Huahua. The era we live in is an era of information development - not just development, but rapid development. The internet has become the means by which we can reach the far corners of the world right from home, and gradually people have come to depend on it.
Now that the internet is so developed, there's Wi-Fi everywhere you go. Even when you go downstairs to buy an ice cream, the corner shop has Wi-Fi connected - you could say it's extremely convenient. We all know that to have Wi-Fi, a router is absolutely indispensable.
Every household has a router. With this router, no matter how many smart devices are at home, they can all connect to the internet, making our lives more convenient. Has anyone ever thought about what to do if there were no router in life? Or what to do if the router breaks?
To prevent the router at home from dying an early death, Huahua specifically asked the broadband installation technician. After hearing what the technician said, Huahua learned a lot, and today I'll share it with everyone.
The technician said that routers are basically in use 365 days a year. Many people neglect to care for and maintain their routers - once they buy one, they just leave it on all the time and never let it rest. This is wrong! No electrical appliance can work all year round without breaking down. If your home router has lagging internet speed and frequent disconnections, you should check whether the router has been used for too long and has already aged.
A router that has been in working condition for a long time may have its internal memory filled up due to transmitting information over a long period. Sometimes while using the internet we can feel the speed going fast and then slow - this is because the router's memory is too full. At this point we should try giving the router a holiday, turning it off and letting it stop running. This way the router can repair its own memory, which is what makes the internet speed faster.
Huahua suggests here that if we go out to work or school during the day, it's best to turn off the router's switch before leaving, letting it rest during the day, and then use it again when we come back at night to use the internet. You'll find the internet speed becomes much faster.
Actually, no matter what electrical appliance it is, none can operate 365 days a year, 24 hours a day. I wonder if you've noticed that at home, computers, TVs or refrigerators all tend to heat up after being used for a long time. Routers actually do too, but no one pays attention to it.
From this we can see that letting household appliances rest has certain benefits - not only can it let the machine repair itself, but it also means the internet won't be too slow when we use it! I hope the technician's advice is useful to everyone!
