1. Try the Automated Troubleshooting tool

Log in with your Frontier ID and use the new Automated Troubleshooting tool.

2. Check the current status of other pages

If you're experiencing slow loading times on a specific website, try visiting two or three other sites and clicking on different links.

• If the other pages appear to be fine, there may be a temporary problem with the site that is causing the slowness for you.

• Try the site again at a different time to see if it is faster.

3. Reduce the number of users who are able to connect to the network

If your home network has a lot of wireless devices, your connection may slow down due to your family's activity.

• Determine whether someone is streaming media, downloading large files, playing online games, or broadcasting live video.

• Consider updating your modem or upgrading your Frontier internet plan if your household always gets a lot of traffic.

4. Set up your device correctly

Do you have a wireless device that is too far away from the router? If it's a computer, try using an Ethernet cable to connect it directly to the router. 

Updating and refreshing your device can give it a boost.

• Run a comprehensive scan on your device if you have anti-virus software installed to check for abnormalities. 

• Try clearing the cache in your web browser.

• Disable any browser add-ons that aren't in use.
