Router Check-Up

Hi Pinki and Sandipan

I conducted a check-up on the router placed in the conference room as discussed. During the testing, I connected four different systems and performed a variety of tasks to monitor the network performance.

I observed that:

The network speed remained stable during basic web browsing and general online activities.
However, significant fluctuations occurred when conducting Zoom meetings or other high-bandwidth tasks.

Given these findings, I recommend that we contact the router service provider for a detailed consultation. They will be able to analyze the issue further and advise on the necessary steps to improve the network performance.

Follow-Ups

Re: Router Check-Up
What is the kind of fluctuations observed. Is there any metric? Is it leading to slowness?. Is there any saturation on I/O operations.

Re: Router Check-Up

Dear Rahul,

Thank you for your email (although we would have appreciated it better if you had provided some relevant evidence as well. That would give us a sense of the gravity of the problem). Please contact the service provider at the earliest and kindly update us, this week itself. This is a critical issue as many of our events and meetings use the Conference room facility.

Regards,

Sandipan
