Interent up and then down up and then down

[Marigold2]

Having trouble with the internet it's up for five minutes down for a half a day. We might need a new modum, not sure, hubby's department. Anyone else go through this?

Who is your ISP?

Dad just needed a new modem from Charter, as even his phone was blinking out midconversation, then back in ...

We had a bad cable from our ISP, that they came and fixed. Other times it's been the router. (Don't use Belkin; they stink.)

I have the same problem - off and on - not on a regular basis tho. Yesterday it was horrible - up and down all day.

It's the router - just the nature of the beast!

And I agree - Belkin stinks. Had that one for a while, and then got rid of it!

When I was using a router, I had the same problem occasinally. It might help if you unplug it and then put it in again. :)
