Hi guys! Thanks, first off.
Here is what I know {I never see their end of it, they don't mention an 'error' message, I think it just is really slow to load and then goes away to no internet...if they get a message, they aren't relaying it to me!!}:
We have a Linksys wireless router. This computer, the main one, is directly connected to Cox cable. The router is hooked up to my modem {that is right, isn't it how it goes? They hooked it up, or, my ex son in law did}.
A few things are hooked up, and, have been for quite some time without any problems. One room has a desktop {like this}, another room has a laptop as well as an XBox {with it's wireless adapter thing in there, I guess like a card?} and the last is one more Xbox in another room. This last one, it is closest to the router and he hasn't had any issues {but, he does not have internet}.
I have refreshed the modem/router. Nothing. I uploaded an upgrade {maybe the wrong one but I followed their directions....} nothing.
When my son brought his laptop into the living room, he had no problems.
So, this leads everyone to think the router needs upgrading. That, the devices on their computers as well as the router itself, do work.
Very annoying. I don't want to pay them to fix it.
Thanks you guys. I am the one who works on our computers so....we are pretty much screwed. :0)
