    .. Can you plug in straight to the wall or modem and get it to work? It may just need to be reset.. or you could need a new one .. you should try and describe the issue a lil more in detail .. Check out also what it says on your router.. 192.16.1.1 or 2.1 If your computer isnt even able to detect the router then well.. first give more info on the issue ^^

    If its just the wireless thats fucking up, then maybe the antennae on the router are busted or something. And how did the technician get it to work? did he get it to work on one of your computers, or are did you call a help line and they told you everything is fine from their end?

    If 9 ppl all experience the same problem simultaneously, then its definitely not a computer issue. Either the internet connection is fucking up or the router is.

    The landlord said he tried it on his own laptop and it worked...but no one witnessed him doing it..maybe shes just trying to rip us off..but yeah, at first it was just me, but then eventually all 9 of us couldn't use it. We can all connect but we can't load anything from it. So if I'm not sending any bytes, does that mean there is something wrong with the antennae possibly?

    Plug your computer directly into the LAN port on the router and see if you can get out, to determine if it's a problem with the router or the wireless AP. If you can't get out, while direct connected to the router, see if you can connect to the router config, usually by telnetting or opening a browser to 192.168.0.1 or 1.1. Once you're on the router GUI (or telnet window), you'll probably need the admin password. Check WAN settings and release and renew the WAN IP if it's set to use DHCP from the ISP, which it probably is. Depending on whether or not the IP renews and you can get on while direct connected, then contact your ISP to run tests between their CO and your router. Check wireless AP settings in the router config as well.


    “For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”

    i would suggest resetting the router... there shoudl be a little button that you hold down for a few seconds and will return the router to defaults.. give that a try but look at your wan login first...
