Re: Router issues

Thanks for the quick response, but still getting DNS server still responding.

Check the PC NIC Drivers and update them if a newer version is available.

I am resetting the modem as well. One of the FREQ's on Earthlink tell me to set it to bridge mode. Should it still be setup this way?

It's really baffling because I hadn't changed any settings to my network since the last time we had connection problems (about 3-4 months ago) and that was solved with a simple power cycle of model and router.

You can try that, but it should not make any difference whether the ZyXEL is Routing or Bridged.

Well just double checked my NIC drivers. I'm using the one built into the motherboard, and it is listed as a Nvidia nForce 10/100 Mbps Ethernet, driver version 73.3.5.0 and it says that I have the latest version when I attempt to update it. I have updated the firmware on my ZyXel modem.

Reinstall the drivers on top of the existing drivers.

Problem solved. Was IP conflict on my network. Setting router to 192.168.2.1 fixed it. No idea why though since I hadn't added any to my network for quite a while.
