My wifi is acting up

[AndreaCG]

Several lights are on but not all. My devices aren't accepting it. I have no clue what to do. If it wasn't lit at all I'd understand it was broken but this stymies me.

1. Have you tried unplugging power, waiting 30 seconds, and turn it on again?

2. ^^^THIS^^^

Good luck...I hate it when that happens!

3. reset it

Try turning off and waiting a bit then turning back on, if that doesn't work find the reset button and use it...

17. No no no no no

Do not press the reset button. The reset button will clear all the settings in the device. You would then have to go through the initial setup again, such as configure the security settings (you do have security settings, right?).

4. If a power-off restart didn't fix it, swap out the cable to

the wireless router. If that didn't do it, just replace the wireless router.

5. I live in a small town on the Oregon Coast

where it's been raining a LOT.

I have to power-cycle my router every day this time of year.

6. We have earthlink verizon

And when I check my speed it says 0 Kbps and a few times it said my speed was 24000 Mbps.

7. Make and model of your router would be helpful if the reset doesn't fix it...

8. Do what Hobbit said.

9. can you direct connect to the router? and remember if self help does not work...outages happen

i love the customer service that wants you to report the disruption using the service that is not working....huh?????

10. It's working now thanks all

It worked earlier today too so I guess it's just a vagarie of technology

13. What's your ISP and Router model? Most issues disappear when connected to a UPS. nt

11. You know, I first read this as my "wife" is acting up.

"several lights are on but not all". Omg

Made me think of my last gf.

12. Lol! n/t

[petronius]

14. That's what I thought as well! Solutions I was going to suggest include:

1) Have you checked the date of your anniversary?
2) Birthday?
3) That joke you made about the cute waitperson, was it really funny?
4) Are you spending too much time on the internet?
5) Go wash the dishes, it's your turn...

... actually, wait - that last one is for me. Gotta go!

[cwydro]

16. LOL!

15. Throw it against the wall.

Or kick it. Both have worked in the past.
