Log into your router and change the channel from "Automatic" to channel 1 or channel 11.
Also whats your signal strength like?
If you don't know how to log in:
Open up IE and type in the address bar: 192.168.1.1 (if you have a black actiontec router). If you have a grey/white D-Link router type in 192.168.0.1.
A page should load up asking for a username and password. If you don't know it, look up your paper work for it OR do a hard reset on your router and then you can make up your own username/password. Hard reset = Hold the reset button for at least 30 seconds.
Also how long has this happened for?
Worse comes to worse, you'll just have to call tech support for a new router. Also, stick with Wireless G technology...more reliable. While you're in your router, change the wireless settings from B & G to G only and that may help as well.
Let me know what happens. |
