Troubleshooting

Internet Problems
If your internet connection is flaky or you are having trouble with WiFi at home, start with your service provider. They can troubleshoot your home internet equipment and offer suggestions. Pro tip: try connecting directly to your cable modem or router with an ethernet cable to see if you get better performance. Try rebooting your modem or router.
Computer Problems

If you are having trouble with your computer, you have a few options.

  • If your computer isn’t running well, download UT’s & check for viruses & malware.
  • Try rebooting your computer. (No really, this works more than you might think!)
  • If you are having problems installing software or your operating system is performing at less than usual capacity, contact the Helpdesk. Our Desktop Support team is available to help by remoting into your desktop while on the telephone with you.
Camera Problems
When you are connecting remotely to your office computer, don’t forget to switch back to the computer in front of you for online meetings. You’ll need to use your home computer’s camera and microphone for Zoom, not your office computer.
