I have a Motorola Surfboard SBG6580. It has been great up till a couple weeks ago. Here's what it's doing-
-The wifi always works great. I have the problems even while netflix is streaming on the tv through the wifi so the wifi connection is never interrupted.
-My pc is the only wired device and most of the time when I pull up a web page it will take several tries before it loads. Sometimes it loads very partially ( like just text but not in the correct format of the webpage), usually not at all. Then all of the sudden it will work for while.
-Sometimes the windows 7 troubleshooter says it cannot identify the problem, sometimes it says there is no problem, anytime it does see the problem it says the DNS servers are not responding.
- I have tried different DNS servers. I have swapped out my ethernet cable. I have tried different ports on my router.
At this point I am at a loss. I can't think of any other possible thing other than my router is starting to take a dump on me. And the fact that the wifi works flawlessly even when the wired connection is not working at all makes me think its a issue in the actual router. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I'm about to pull my freaking hair out over here. Thanks!
