i got my computer back but the internet doesn't really work. it just connects and reconnects every five minutes, making it impossible to use sites like facebook or AOL instant messaging. tips?
whenever i log in here every few months, i'm reminded of the time i once drove to the place i grew up in like 15 years after i moved away and the busy mall i used to run around in looked like it had been almost completely empty for years, with the exception of a handful of shoe stores that had not only survived but somehow multiplied. your posts are kind of like those shoe stores.
Tips via Jim: unplug your router, turn off the computer, then plug router in while computer is off, then turn computer back on.
He said if that doesn't work he thinks it's either 1. something is hooked up incorrectly/loose. 2. trojan worm/virus or issue with internet browser. Try another browser. 3. your ISP is having issues with too many people being on it in your area. Have local cable company reset connection.

Hope something there helps.
