Why isn't my router working?
For the past two days, all of a sudden my routers being weird. I was using the Internet and then suddenly it's still connected to the router yet I can't connect to the Internet. It's the same for every device I'm on, tablet, iPhone, Xbox, etc… I'm wondering if my routers broken? Or what. I've tried unplugging it several times yet nothing's happened. The send an receive data lights flash on the modem also.
It sounds like you're having signal issues with the internet feed into the router. If you have a modem connected to the router you may have to unplug it and plug it back in. I would also do that for the router itself. Rebooting these devices does wonders.
If that doesn't work try switching off the router/modem for 20 minutes or so and turning them back on. The ISP will give you a new IP address automatically which may help resolve some issues.
If that doesn't work, I would call up the ISP and tell them to boost the signal to your house or to check the diagnostics to see if there's a problem on the line.
Hope this helps!
Sorry but it must be broken

- What's the difference between a cheap router and a good router? Just wanted to know the difference between a cheap router and an expensive router, I know that is a very broad question, I'm just a bit confused on how a router works. Does it increase my Internet speed on multiple devices? I get 50Mb per second, Well at least that's what I pay for. I have a PS3 two iPhones and a tablet, as well as a desktop PC that is wireless.
