It is important that you take good care of your laptop and modem/router to keep it working well. Following these easy steps will ensure that your device lasts longer and requires less maintenance. As a bonus, these tips will also help with undisturbed production.
Laptop Battery Backup
Even the most efficient laptop is going to run out of juice at some point. Hence, ensure that your laptop battery is always maintained between 70% and 90%. Letting it below 20 percent often will affect the lifespan of the battery considerably. To enjoy uninterrupted workflow and video calls, during the lockdown it is recommended that you keep your device plugged-in while in use.
Reboot WIFI Modem/Router
Reboot is just a fancy way of saying "turn your modem off and back on". Restarting your modem can fix a few internet connection problems, improve slow connections, and resolve wireless issues. Please follow the below steps.
Even if you haven't encountered any errors it's a good practice to periodically restart your router and cable modem (once in a week is a good pace). This will help keep your connection working and should reduce the possibility of losing the internet at an inopportune time. To reboot your device use the power button on your device (if available).
