Sometimes I will be connected to the router but not the internet.
There are 2 other computers plugged into the router, and 1 other computer connecting wirelessly and they all have flawless connections. The only thing i can think of is because I am downstairs and the router is upstairs, maybe the connection is weak and wont pick up sometimes.
If thats the case, could you guys suggest the right kind of booster or range extender? |
If it's an upstairs/downstairs problem, try turning one of the antenni horizontal and see if your connection status changes to very good or excellent. Also, have you turned security on to your router, and changed the name of it? There are a million linksys routers out there that are wide open and defaulted as 'linksys'. It could be you're not even connecting to your router...
