INTERNET INTERMITTENT OR FREQUENT DISCONNECTION - TIME

Intermittent internet connection using LAN cable
Looks like there is something wrong with your service connection.Please run a Ping Test, Traceroute Test and attach the picture or screenshot of both test results in the Feedback Form below, in order for us to provide further assistances.

Please make sure to attach the required screenshot(s) in ONE file (i.e. Microsoft Word document, PDF, Image file) before submitting the form.

Intermittent internet connection using Wi-Fi

1. Router Positioning

Most people underestimate the importance of picking a good spot for a Wi-Fi router. Even a small shift in positioning could end up being the difference between day and night.    

i) High vs. Low

Put the router as high up as possible to extend the broadcasting range  of the radio waves. This also helps clear the router of possible interferences.
 

ii) Concrete & Metals

Make sure your router isn't blocked by any other objects, especially devices that are electronic. Also, avoid placing your router in your basement as this area is usually enclosed by a lot of concrete, which can be almost  impossible for Wi-Fi signals to penetrate.
 

iii) Distance to Router

The further away from your router you get, the weaker the Wi-Fi signal. Therefore, the best option is to place your router as close to your  devices as possible, but this is only practical if you have one main area where you tend to use your devices.

Otherwise, you should place your router near the center of your home. After all, Wi-Fi broadcasts in 360 degrees, so it doesn't make sense to put it at one end of the house.


2. Wireless Interference & Noise

You've probably never noticed but there are wireless signals all around you wherever you go and they're passing  through you all the time. From where? Electronic devices, Wi-Fi routers, satellites, cell towers, and more.

Although Wi-Fi is supposed to be on a different frequency than most of these devices, the amount of radio noise can still cause interference. Some common causes of interference include:

  • Microwaves
  • Bluetooth Devices
  • Cordless Phone
 

3.  Surrounding Wi-Fi signals

A truth of the modern world is that every household has their own Wi-Fi network, which can cause issues with channel overlap. This can be somewhat problematic in a townhouse, but is especially problematic in housing complexes and apartments where there can be many routers within close proximity.

Which is why it's important that you pick a good channel in your router settings. Modern routers can choose channels for you automatically, but sometimes it's better to investigate and find the best channel yourself.
 

4. Usage

More likely, however, is that the people on your network such as friends, roommates, or family members are participating in bandwidth-heavy activities like gaming and streaming Ultra box/ Netflix.

Fortunately, if this is the case, you can prioritize your own network traffic by enabling Quality of Service in your router settings.

If the problem  persists, please run a Ping Test, Traceroute Test and attach the picture or screenshot of both test results in the Feedback Form below, in order for us to provide further assistances

Please make sure to attach the required screenshot(s) in ONE file (i.e. Microsoft Word document, PDF, Image file)  before submitting the form.


Quick Info
A Speedtest is a service that provides free analysis of Internet access parameters, such as connection data rate.
A Ping Test shows how long it takes for packets to reach host.
A Traceroute Test traces the route of packets to destination host from our server.


CAN I PURCHASE MOVIES ON MY ASTRO?

Yes, you can purchase Astro First and Astro Best content by using the app and web. Refer below for the steps to purchase movies via this app and web. Thereafter, you can watch them on Astro Go.


MAY I REQUEST A REFUND OF THE CREDIT BALANCE IN MY ASTRO ACCOUNT?

WHY CAN'T I GET MAXIMUM SPEED BASED ON MY SUBSCRIPTION PACKAGE (500/800MBPS) ON MY LAPTOP/MOBILE PHONE?

As a rule of thumb, this issue might happen when the devices are not equipped with minimum requirement above that supports the subscribed internet speeds:

  • WiFi technology
  • Network Interface Card (NIC)
 

As mentioned above however, it is important to note that despite meeting the device minimum requirements, it is not a guarantee that devices connected over WiFi will be able to achieve maximum subscribed internet speeds due to the following:

  1. Bad WiFi signal quality and coverage across the area due to:
    • Distance from the RGW/Mesh AP with connected device
    • Obstruction within the house (walls, metallic surfaces)
    • Interference with other household appliances
  2. Congested bandwidth
    • If there are too many devices connected to the WiFi network, then the bandwidth might be overloaded with traffic hence, slowing down the speed
  3.  Devices are connected using WiFi instead of wired using LAN.
    • It is important to note that wired connection offers better reliability and speed over WiFi.
    • WiFi is more prone to interference compared to a wired connection which causes lower speeds and dropped signal.
  4. Router Positioning: Most people underestimate the importance of picking a good spot for a Wi-Fi router. Even a small shift in positioning could end up being the difference between day and night:
    • High vs. Low: Put the router as high up as possible to extend the broadcasting range of the radio waves. This also helps clear the router of possible interferences.
    • Concrete & Metals: Make sure your router isn’t blocked by any other objects, especially devices that are electronic. Also, avoid placing your router in your basement as this area is usually enclosed by a lot of concrete, which can be almost impossible for Wi-Fi signals to penetrate.
    • Distance to Router: The further away from your router you get, the weaker the Wi-Fi signal. Therefore, the best option is to place your router as close to your devices as possible, but this is only practical if you have one main area where you tend to use your devices. Otherwise, you should place your router near the center of your home. After all, Wi-Fi broadcasts in 360 degrees, so it doesn’t make sense to put it at one end of the house.
  5. Usage
    • More likely, however, is that the people on your network such as friends, roommates, or family members are participating in bandwidth-heavy activities like gaming and streaming Ultrabox/Netflix.
    • Fortunately, if this is the case, you can prioritize your own network traffic by enabling Quality of Service in your router settings.
    • If the problem persists, please run a Ping Test/Traceroute Test and attach the picture or screenshot of both test results in the Feedback Form below, in order for us to provide further assistances. Please make sure to attach the required screenshot(s) in ONE file (i.e. Microsoft Word document, PDF, Image file) before submitting the form.



Note:
Astro and its service providers will not offer any guarantees for compatibility of the customer's equipment (e.g., Personal Computer, Notebook, printers) nor provide on site troubleshooting for WiFi service issues related to the customer's equipment.

Slow browsing using Wi-Fi

1. Router Positioning

Most people  underestimate the importance of picking a good spot for a Wi-Fi router. Even a small shift in positioning could end up being the difference between day  and night.

i) High vs. Low

Put the router as high up as possible to  extend the broadcasting range of the radio waves. This also helps clear the  router of possible interferences.

ii) Concrete &  Metals

Make sure your router isn't blocked by any other objects, especially  devices that are electronic. Also, avoid placing your router in your basement  as this area is usually enclosed by a lot of concrete, which can be almost  impossible for Wi-Fi signals to penetrate.

iii) Distance to  Router

The further away from your router you get, the weaker the Wi-Fi signal. Therefore, the best option is to place your router as close to your  devices as possible, but this is only practical if you have one main area  where you tend to use your devices.

Otherwise, you should place your  router near the center of your home. After all, Wi-Fi broadcasts in 360  degrees, so it doesn't make sense to put it at one end of the house.

 

2. Wireless Interference & Noise

You've probably never  noticed but there are wireless signals all around you wherever you go and  they're passing through you all the time. From where? Electronic devices,  Wi-Fi routers, satellites, cell towers, and more.

Although Wi-Fi is supposed to be on a different frequency than most of these devices, the amount of radio noise can  still cause interference. Some common causes of interference include:

  • Microwaves
  • Bluetooth Devices
  • Cordless Phone

 

3. Surrounding Wi-Fi signals

A truth of the modern world is that every household has their own Wi-Fi network, which can cause issues with channel  overlap. This can be somewhat problematic in a townhouse, but is especially  problematic in housing complexes and apartments where there can be many  routers within close proximity.

Which is why it's important that you pick a good channel in your  router settings. Modern routers can choose channels for you automatically, but sometimes it's better to investigate and find the best channel yourself.

 

4. Usage

More likely, however, is that the people on your network such as friends, roommates, or family members are participating in bandwidth-heavy activities like gaming and streaming Ultra box/ Netflix.

Fortunately, if this is the case, you can prioritize your own network  traffic by enabling Quality of Service in your router settings.

If the problem persists, please run a Ping Test, Traceroute Test and attach the picture or screenshot of both test results in the Feedback Form below, in order for us to provide further assistances.

Please make sure to attach the required  screenshot(s) in ONE file (i.e. Microsoft Word document, PDF, Image file)  before submitting the form.
