Some common websites don't load on my tablet or laptop using wifi. They work fine if I use ethernet to connect my laptop to the router. I also have had timeouts connecting to the router config page sometimes, so it isn't the internet connection (I get 28Mbit in a speedtest on ethernet).
This started today. I believe there was a power outage yesterday. My port forwarding and MAC reservations are still in there though, so it didn't get reset completely.
I tried power cycling several times, changing settings from various forums (like MTU), and turning the firewall off on the router. Still doesn't work.
I can doa factory reset of the router, but am not sure if that will mess up my TV/internet with Comcast (I have a cablecard). Any other ideas?
Router is a Motorola SBG6580.
UPDATE: I did a factory reset. Same issue. Even some sites like google.com are super slow on wifi. Works perfect wired.
