Hello,
Yesterday I was happily browsing the internet when it stopped working. I was suddenly down to 'limited connectivity'. I decided to try reconnecting, however, after disconnecting, the wireless network simply disappeared from the list of available networks and I cannot seem to get it back!
Here is what I can tell you:
- I'm able to pick up (and connect to) other wireless networks
- The wireless router is giving out a signal, my friend can see it
- The wireless signal is of sufficient strength for me to receive it
- The network did appear for about one minute after I restarted my PC one time, however I could not connect to it and it later disappeared again.
- I've tried disabling/enabling the wireless adapter and resetting router/modem
At first I thought the router had banned me. If this were the case, would the network become completely hidden? I was the only one home when It happened so I think this is unlikely unless virgin media are sneaky enough to gain access to our router (it has their own software on the router...)
Any ideas to what could have happened?
Cheers,
Courtney
