well..im having problems again with my internet..it doesnt work at all..yes we paid for the internet, yes i tried unplugging everything..idk what else to do..
any suggestions?
thanks..

 

call your internet provider. what kinda internet do you have?

 

verizon dsl

 

yea call them.. i've had to call them 2wice before because my dsl didn't work. it was both their side's problem. like the IP address was locekd up, or they had to refresh something on their side. after that it should all work out fine.

 

yah thats exactly it, my ip is like gone..and i always thought it was my router not working..what info do i need to tell them?

oh yah..what number do i call..they got more then 1

 

call verizon and tell tehm you want FIOS!!! its awesome, i just got it installed today and its so kickass

 

whats FIOS?

 

is that the new thing that verizon's offering? the super fast one? and about the number, i'm not sure. just remember it was a 800 number and it connected me to india.

 

ohh alright

 

was it one of these numbers aroddalobster?

hm the only phone number that i have seems to be the 1800-sumthing-3000 one. i never checked online for the phone number, so i'm guessing i called that one.

 

oh..well im home right now and my internet is randomly working again..

 

FIOS= Fiber Optics.

Nice and fast. At my other house my cousin lives across the street and has FIOS, and I only have DSL. When we asked if we could get FIOS too, they said they haven't ran the stuff through our part of the neighborhood yet. And it's the same damn price!! >.<

 

yea i'm thinking of upgrading to that, since my dsl is kinda screwy sometimes. but that may also have to do with my 5 year old modem. hehe.

 

yea fios is sick! i've had it for about 5 hours and i love it haha, next month they are installing the Digital cable and i cant wait for that either! (reason its not installed yet is because its not available until Jan

 

well i got another problem..my internet keeps on freezing on me..and when i try to connect the cords through my router..it doesnt work..

 

i had to call linksys the first time i got my router. i couldn't connect to the world wide web without the call.. again, to india. i called in the evening and he was apparently eating breakfast. whoops... felt bad for disturbing his meal.

 

it was working before..it just stopped working one day..is there anything i can do besides calling to fix this problem? i know theres a way..i fixed it before plently of times but that method wont work anymore..

 

lol sry, my internet fix procedure is always unplug my router and modem, if that doesn't help, 192.168.1.1 and fiddle w/ things in there, and if that doesn't work, i just go to my phone and call. but i've only had to do that a couple of times in the 5 years i've had this setup.

 

thanks, ill try that out at home
appreciate ur help!
