Troubleshooting Disconnections When Working Remotely

 Working from home has become the new norm for many professionals. However, dealing with unexpected disconnections from your work computer can be frustrating. Let’s explore some steps to diagnose and resolve this issue.

1. Check Your Internet Connection

Start by ruling out any issues with your internet connection. Follow these steps:

  1. Disconnect from VPN: If you’re using a VPN (Virtual Private Network), disconnect from it temporarily.

  2. Test Streaming: Try streaming a video or music. If you experience buffering or interruptions, your internet connection might be the culprit.

  3. Restart Your Router: Power cycle your router by unplugging it for a few seconds and then plugging it back in. This can often resolve connectivity issues.

If you’ve tried the above steps and are still experiencing disconnections, it’s time to involve your IT team.  If you don't have an IT team, give us a call, we provide Outsourced IT services.
