Hey, im back again!

On my Dlink DSL-2740b modem router, the internet light (status light) and the WLAN light flashes continuesly from time to time? does this mean a problem? does this mean the internet is not fully connected? why is the status light not solid green fro time to time? any clues?

It indicates that you have a poor DSL connection, which is probably an ISP issue.

Register at DSLReports and run their Line Quality Tests. It's best to run this test with a direct wired connection to eliminate any wireless issues from the results. It's useful many times to run this test several times, and we'd like to see each of the results. Post the results link from the top of the test display page for each test run here.

The link to post is near the top of the page and looks like:

If you wish to post this result to a forum, please copy/paste this URL

and your IP will be disguised.

Copy/paste that link here.

Note: You will have to enable PING (ICMP) request response either in your router (if you have one), or in your computer's firewall for direct modem connections. This is very important to get the most important part of the test to run.
