      How to Improve or Stabilize Internet Connection

      1. Restart Your Wi-Fi Router: Restarting the router can refresh the connection and potentially improve the speed.

      2. Use a Wired Connection: Consider using a wired internet connection instead of Wi-Fi. Wired connections generally provide more stability and faster speeds compared to wireless connections.

      3. Disconnect Other Devices: Disconnect other devices that might be using the same network. Devices consuming bandwidth can affect the available speed for the exam.

      4. Close Unnecessary Applications: Close any applications or programs that might be using your internet connection, except for the browser running the exam. Background applications can consume bandwidth and impact connection speed.

      5. Disable VPN Temporarily: Temporarily disable any Virtual Private Network (VPN) if you are using one. VPNs can sometimes slow down internet speed, so disabling it during the exam might help improve the connection.

      6. Switch to a Different Network: If possible, switch to a different internet connection. For example, you can enable the hotspot mode on your smartphone and connect your computer to it. This can provide an alternative network with potentially better speed.

      Note: After implementing these recommendations, restart your browser by entering the address chrome://restart or edge://restart in a new tab and pressing Enter. Then, rerun the system check to ensure the changes have taken effect and to verify if the internet connection speed meets the requirements for the exam.
