Losing Internet connection
I keep losing my internet connection. I have a Liinksys X2000 router/modem and the adsl light is still flashing but the wireless internet connection is not available. I tried Cico Connect to repair and it could not do so even after shutting the router down for 2 mins as suggested by Cisco. I then used the Windows 7 troubleshooter which said it would try to repair the connection, however it said it could not find the problem but by then I had the internet connection available. Laptop Compaq CQ56 Win7 SP1.
Is there an existing log file that will let me see what happens with the connection or can a log file be generated.
I also have the CD/DVD for win7 SP2 but am afraid to install it in case I make the problem worse.
Can you help please
