Loosing connection.

[Ivy]

Hi ,
For a couple of days my internet connection has been pathetic! I turn on my comp and my internet gets connected for a second and then connectivity is lost  again,It says 'unable to reach gateway'  or unable to reach server etc, but when I click repair button under 'support' option it connects for a second, I know I have to call my ISP home to repair this but I want to know if there is a way to do it myself.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thankyou.

Here is the 'support' button I mentioned.

Anyone knows anything about this???

Could you paste the results of an IPCONFIG /ALL into the thread so I can get some more info?
Go to Start, Run, CMD, then type IPCONFIG /ALL.

Thanks

[Ivy]

What is IPCONFIG /ALL?

I'm sorry but I don't wanna paste any personal info

It pretty shows detailed information about your internet connection.
I honestly don't know why it would be important here but, who knows.

I would try restarting your router and modem. (Unplug them for about 30 secodns)

So Queen.....remember downloading/installing anything before it happened?

Thankyou so much for letting me know of this Brian.

I don't use a router.

Haven't downloaded much lately but yeah my virtual memory n stuff are low, its working for now atleast!!

You knwo what exactly was I looking for, every time I get this gateway problem , those guys from ISP come and do something In command prompt or something and it begins to work, I wanna know if anyone knows anything about that

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

Command Prompt eh?

Perhaps:

Code: [Select]

ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
But I would think that does the same thing as Repair. I'm not sure.

[Ivy]

Probably!!
Next time this happens I'll use these commands too.

Good Luck.

Ivy...
IPCONFIG /ALL is basic troubleshooting tool, and there is nothing private info there.

[Ivy]

I didn't know that Broni so I just asked!!

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

Your internet appears to be fine now.

[Ivy]

I tried all those commands, and all it says is path not found, I have to click on repair a hundred times before I can post.

ipconfig not found?
