Hi Claudia, >From time to time, the wireless router will sometimes crack under pressure, figuratively speaking of course. Smiles.
The only way to fix this is to disconnect the electricity from the wireless router, and wait for about a minute or so. To be safe, I would say to unplug it from the electricity, then go get yourself a cup of water or coffee, or tea, which ever you prefer to drink, then, once you're done getting your drink, come back, and plug the router back in. At that point, the router will re-initialize, and the connection will be re-established. Like I said, there really is no rhyme or reason to it, these wireless routers are just susceptible to those kinds of things, and this is usually the only way to fix it. If you find that it's happening an extraordinary number of times, you may want to bring it to the attention of SBC Global/A T & T, and let them know that your router may be defective, unless you purchased it from an electronics shop, in which case, unless your router is still under warranty, you may have to purchase another router. Having said that, it might also be a problem with your connection always getting lost from the ISP, and so your router has to compensate for the loss in signal, and since it doesn't know how to do this, it loses the connection and it sort of stalls, in which case, it is most definitely a problem with the ISP, but unfortunately, there really is no way of diagnosing/tracing this problem to the source unless you place another router in the same household, then seeing if the new router does the same thing. If so, then you know it's not the router that's screwed up, it's the ISP connection being supplied, and they have to come check it out. Victor
