## Troubleshooting Slow or Missing Suggestions

If you experience slow or missing suggestions from GitHub Copilot in your IDE:

1. **Check Internet Connection**
Copilot requires a stable internet connection. Any network instability can delay suggestions.

2. **Restart Your IDE**
Closing and reopening your IDE can refresh the Copilot session.
