To make the most of your Nexstream Internet connection, consider the following tips:
Use a Wired Connection
For the fastest and most stable Internet experience, connect your device directly to the Plume or router using an Ethernet cable. Wired connections eliminate potential Wi-Fi signal issues and provide a reliable, consistent connection.
Optimize Wi-Fi Performance
If you prefer a wireless connection, ensure optimal Wi-Fi performance by placing your router in a central location, away from obstructions. Additionally, consider using the 5 GHz frequency band for faster speeds and less interference.
Keep Software Updated
Regularly update your device’s operating system and web browsers. Software updates often include performance enhancements and security patches, improving your overall internet experience.
Limit Background Activities
Background applications, software updates, and file downloads can consume bandwidth and affect your internet speed. Prioritize your online activities and avoid running bandwidth-heavy tasks simultaneously.
Secure Your Network
Protect your Wi-Fi network with a strong password. Unauthorized users can slow down your internet speed or compromise your security.
Clear Cache and Cookies
Clearing your browser’s cache and cookies regularly can improve browsing speed and reduce the chances of encountering issues with specific websites. For directions on how to do this, search for “Clear cache” plus your browser name.
