After about two years of keeping my stuffty mac downstairs, my mom finally agreed to let me move my computer up to my room. Despite having wireless internet, I had the router wired to it. So I've had it up here for about two weeks but yesterday after attempting to download a large file and cancelling it, our internet decides to be an starfish and repeatedly crash and come back, on infinite loop. So now I have about 5-15 minutes of internet before it forgets up again, for a good 15-30 minutes. My mom learns about the internet crashing and tries to fix it all day. Frustrated, we give up before the new year's celebration.
Today the internet is still stuff. I thought my mom would call at&t customer support, but she didn't. She comes upstairs and says "i think the internet isn't working because it's not hooked up to the computer." I explain that the internet was still working after not being connected to anything for two weeks up until yesterday. "The internet was using the printer as a server and today the printer went kaput." This sounds stupid to me, although I'm not very knowing of computers, I can't conjure up an explanation. She claimed her laptop being wired to it instead has been keeping our internet well, but nothing has changed, it is still not working for my sister and I.
Also, my 3DS refuses to connect, even when a foot away from the router.
TL;DR I ated a babby, but pirates came.
