lost internet connection after downloading a movie
« on: December 19, 2006, 07:30:57 AM »
Hi,
I have left my labtop (win xp, ethernet lan connection) for a few hours downloading a movie, when I came back the movie was perfect but my internet connection was gone. The modem seems ok, cables are fine and the usual lights are on.
I ran MSConfig on the desktop, and under settings activated ... Ping statistics for 192.168.0.1: Packets: Sent = 4, received = 0, lost =4 <100% Loss> ...

Any suggestion??
Thanx in advance
Laremi

    Did you try restarting the machine?

    Again, details are always helpful.

    Try turning off your modem or unplugging it, then turn it back on.
