Another possibility is that something is flooding your internal network. Also, is your internet connection (to your ISP) DSL or Cable? If it's cable, there's a small possibility that someone on your hub is draining the available bandwidth (and it's just coincidental that it happened after you formatted). If you reboot the router, and it does not resolve the issue, and your on cable, then contact your provider and see if they notice anything odd on their end (if it's Time Warner, abandon all hope). Generally though cable companies will cap excessive bandwidth usage, yours may not however. Let us know if rebooting the router helps, don't be afraid to pull the power on it Edited March 23, 2007 by Dovienya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nismofreak Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 (edited) Try resetting the router might work. DID it on mine and starrted working. Edited March 23, 2007 by Nismofreak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MegaloManiac Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 reinstall your drivers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civichatch Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 just unplug your power cable to the router. If it continues try using a freinds router or buy another one. That sounds like the problem.

Dovienya Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 (edited) reinstall your drivers Megalo, if it's happening on more than one machine, then more than likely drivers are not the issue (especially as one is a mac). Troubleshoot the single point of failure first. It could be a queue/cache problem on the router, which rebooting might fix. Otherwise it could be a bandwidth limitation that is causing his connections to time out. His ISP could have implemented a misconfigured QoS policy on their side. Or any number of things.... But try the simple stuff first. :] Just thought of something, is your network wireless? If so, installed any new electrical appliances or a new wireless phone lately?
