Quick IT Tips
Practical advice for West Allis businesses — whether you work with us or not.
- •If your West Allis office computers take more than 90 seconds to boot, the most impactful upgrade is replacing the mechanical hard drive with a solid-state drive (SSD). An SSD swap typically costs $150-300 per machine and cuts boot times to under 30 seconds — often extending a computer's useful life by two to three years.
- •Before calling about slow internet, run a speed test from a computer connected directly to your router via ethernet cable (not Wi-Fi). If the wired speed matches what you're paying for but Wi-Fi is slow, the problem is your wireless network, not your ISP — and the solution is usually new access points, not a more expensive internet plan.
- •If your office printer constantly jams, check whether you're using the correct paper weight and type for your printer model. Many West Allis businesses buy the cheapest paper available, but some printers need specific paper weights to feed reliably. Check your printer's manual — this free fix solves more jam issues than people expect.
- •When email problems strike, check your domain's SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records before assuming it's a Microsoft or Google issue. You can verify these records using free online tools like MXToolbox. Misconfigured authentication records are the cause of most business email deliverability problems.
- •Keep a log of recurring IT problems — date, time, what happened, which machine. When you work with us, that log helps us identify patterns that point to root causes. 'The internet is slow sometimes' is hard to diagnose. 'The internet drops every Tuesday and Thursday between 2-3 PM' points directly to the problem.
