Hmm....your internet basically is doin pretty bad.. Have you tried it in different browsers? Have you run antivirus and antispyware tests? If so what programs did you use?
no its not a spyware im clean and not a virus, it just doesnt work like im on firefox and it says could not find then my msn signs out and all that
I would first talk to your ISP, and if that doesnt help, try resetting the router, and build it up again.
i disagree with that, not in that order at least if you have a wireless connection, then cell phones, chordless phones, and sometimes even wireless keyboards and mouses (anything that could be wired but is wirelss) would most likely mess up your connection. if you are wired, then something could have gotten into the cables, they are messed up from bugs, mice (chewing on cables), or if you had a recent electrical storm, that could also be the problem. if its neither of those then yes, talk to your ISP, servers could be down or something outside your modem or router could be the problem, like a ruined cable. But first check your house for things that may be interfering with your connection and then reset the router and THEN talk to your ISP about it.
alright, technically it could be that, but normally, 9 times out of 10, it's the router hardware, not the phone line. If you can't call on a wired phone, then mice wouldnt be the problem. I never used wireless mice or keyboards, so I never experienced that problem...
im using a wireless one and well no but my brother is like um about 30 ft away and the max is way more then that so the signal should be strong but its usually low and my brother losses the signal alot and i got confused cuz the router is working well and hes not that far from me
