Hi, I need help. I used my pc normally for years now on a ethernet conection and it was fine, and all of a sudden I dont have internet anymore. Around that time my provider changed the router but It worked few days I'm pretty sure and the tv works fine. I called the provider and they told me that we crossed the limit of the internet for this month, or that is the only thing he saw was wrong. He said that I should try turning of my router during the night for few days and that might help. But I really doubt that.
It looks like this: I turn on the PC and I have conection for a minute and It disappeares, it says that the router is not providing or somthing. Now I'm using usb wi-fi antena. If anyone have any suggestions I would like to hear them.

queen jackal Hi, I need help. I used my pc normally for years now on a ethernet conection and...

make sure they plugged the ethernet cord back in correctly...and fully, youd be suprised how often silly stuff like that happens

#

if you have another ethernet cord try that

#

also, a screenshot of the error your talking about would be helpful

Have you tried checking your ethernet drivers?

#

or drivers in general?

undone schooner Apr 4, 2025, 4:28 PM

#
