Re: strong internet connection... no internet!

might be router related issue. DHCP server isn't giving proper IP addresses ...

Re: strong internet connection... no internet!

and then cuts in half to around 65...70 but still says excellent... and i cant open up a web site.. says website found waiting for reply ...and the bar goes ever so slow.
but its only my computer... this one works fine as you can see... and everything else that uses internet lol so what is the deal?

Re: strong internet connection... no internet!

This has worked for me in the past. My lappy does something similar sometimes. If a restart doesn't fix it I shut down the lap and reboot the router/modem (mine is a combo) and that always, so far anyway, does the trick. No harm in trying right?

Merry Christmas!!!
