    Hi,  Having trouble with windows updates.  When i get the new batch to be downloaded, it seems to wipe my internet.  It wont allow me to connect thru any option.  But the strange is, it still shows a successful connection to my router.  any ideas what could be wrong.  more info on request

    thanks

      i forgot to add, the only way i can regain access, is by restoring the computer to an earlier time, but as soon as the updates are scheduled. the problem reoccurs

      How about a run down of your system? What version windows? What programs have you added lately?

      Anti-viruse and malware programs?

      Can you go to any other site? What browser?
