Author Topic: Internet Shortages  (Read 1305 times)

Well, just recently my computer's internet randomly shuts off, usually when I'm play games or just browsing the internet. My router/modem are fine, so are the wires. Anyone think something might be wrong that I don't know about? It's severely pissing me off :<

Maybe something's wrong with your ethernet port.

This has been happening to me, only I didn't "hot glue" my wires, I'm just connected to the router via ethernet.

My internet goes out like every 10 minutes if I'm gaming, sometimes 5. I scanned for viruses and spyware, nothing. I deleted a few things from my computer, nothing.
