My internet has been on the decline for a while now. I've been fighting with my ISP here lately because they think it's my problem and I think it's their problem, but I wonder about my router.
It's a Linksys wrt54g version 6 router. I like to play online games every now and again and I disconnect all the time now and I never had that problem. Not only that, I notice my little computer in my task-bar loses it's globe and gets that red X and then it re-connects. Well that's annoying cause I also do college online and you can imagine trying to take a quiz online with internet dropping out.
So question is: what is wrong with my internet? It wasn't like this before.
I updated my router to the latest firmware, hoping that would mend the problem, but nothing. It worked good for all of 10 minutes and went back to bad internet.
BTW my ISP (ELC Internet (local crap)) is a jackbutt and if I try to call them too many times because of the internet going out, they'll just start hanging up on me. Real professional... and my aunt next door is having disconnecting problems too at times.
