more lovely internet problems

krim058 · 02-10-2009, 03:44 PM

Recently (the past 2 weeks or so) I've been having trouble with the internet on my computer. It works fine for a minute or two, then stops completely for 15-30 seconds, then it's back to normal. My roommate's computer works fine when plugged into my ethernet cord and I have the same problem when plugged into his. Any ideas as to what may be the problem? I've run through the basics like resetting the router etc. but nothing seems to help.

In the last couple of weeks I've been having trouble with the internet. it will work alright for about 1-2 minutes, then it'll stop completely for about 20-30 seconds, then go back to normal. My roommate's computer works fine when plugged into my ethernet cord and when I plug mine into his the problem still occurs.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've run through the basics and reset my router, disabling firewall, but nothing seems to help.

Does it function normally if you boot in Safe Mode with Networking?
