no internet

[scklifasovskiy]

Hi all,
I have an internet in my other house near the city. When I don't show up often enough there -- i always disconnect the power.
Then i am coming back, put power back -- and all is back up.
However, this time around -- "Web ... couldn't be found".

This is what I see:

1. Modem is on and shows DSL signal (green)
2. Router is connected to modem, shows green on internet indication, and both computers that are connected.
3. Computer is connected to router and shows green light under it indicating network is connected.

When I go to browser and try to connect to any page -- "Web ... couldn't be found"
If I go to Control Panel and try to trouble shoot -- tells me I have problems with my modem (what problems???? all is green")...and suggests to reset. I did reset multiple times -- but didn't help.

Any suggestions please???

What do you mean by reset? Reset the modem?
You should start with rebooting the computer, after the modem is connected and everything else is 'green'.

Likely your IP stuff is munged on the computer. Can you ping the router? How do you get IP address on the computer?

Do a complete cold boot. Turn off your modem, router, and computer. Then turn the devices on in the following order:

1. Modem - wait until it is showing as fully booted (all lights on that should be on) before proceeding.
2. Router - again, wait until all lights that should be on are on before proceeding.
3. Computer - once it is booted log on and then go to your CMD (or CLI) prompt and type: ipconfig /flushdns and hit enter.


Hope this helps.
