Hi all, you've helped me out in a jam before so I thought I'd ask here again.
My internet connection has crashed and I cant seem to get it back up. I've called my ISP and they havent been able to help me. Here is my situation:
I have a cable modem with a router. I am using wires and ethernet, nothing is wireless. My gf's computer is able to go online most of the time whereas mine doesnt go online at all. When I load up a page is says 'server unable to connect" or "unable to load page". But the thing is, I can use AOL and it works fine, that is how I am able to post this now! AOL works fine, but I still cant get any updates online or play any online games. Also, IE and firefox do not work at all! So only AOL works (for some reason).
I thought my router was the problem so I went and got another router and no go, it doesnt do anything, so I really dont know what is the matter. I havent been messing with anything and the modem & router seems to be working properly. Even my ISP says that they are working and are showing up on their end. So what could it be? Is there anyway to tell what is wrong?
