I swear, sometimes if it's not one thing, it's the other.
We just paid our internet bill a couple days ago. Everything is hunky freakin' dorey until yesterday. Internet goes down. I call AT&T, sure enough, outage. Fine.
This morning, internet is still down, so I call them again. I did what they asked and come to find out I can get on the internet just fine without my router (Netgear WGR614v7). They can't help with it as it's a 3rd party router.
I call Netgear. They say they can help, but it'll be $100/min. Ummm....no.
For 4 hours, I've been fighting with this plastic turd. I've restarted the modem, the router and my computer. I even set the router back to factory settings. I pinged the router in the run command and it comes back fine, so I know the computer recognizes it. My modems ethernet light comes on when I connect it to the router, so it recognizes it, too. I have the username and password correct, set it to automatically get ISP Address and DNS address. In short, nothing has changed from before except that it doesn't connect now.
What's going on?
