Forum Networking : Routers & Gateways Router will connect only at random times

Word :    Username :           
 

Hello,
I have a laptop and a router, my land lord supplies internet and so I have my router connected to her modem. All lights are working. I can only get a internet connection at random times. It may work fine for 2 days and no connections for 3 days and sometimes I may get it for a couple of hours. I have reset it 2 times. When it does connect it has a por signal. When signal is fair or excellent it will not connect What To do? Thank you for your time.

try changing the router LAN IP to 192.168.5.1

also you might want to try a different wireless channel
