Go to Post It's a good things we're engineers who regularly squeeze out 'miracles' with a severely limited budget, eh? I think that's an important aspect that we as mentors need to show the students from time to time, and this year is a perfect opportunity. - JesseK [more]

Internet Blues

Ok so here is the situation...

I have Bright House and they are really great, they provide internet and cable. well cable for the internet. my ISP is Earthlink. I have a Motorola Modem... no clue what the model is but its the only one you can find on the Circuit City website.

So after a while my house network grew and its set up like this. (yes i know it isnt smart but it worked great!)

So the modem runs straight into a linksys router. From the router.... my Dad's desktop is run straight to it right next to the router.

Now my set up is different. I found these neat wireless LAN Cable things from Logitech. These just turn it into a wireless connection, then back into LAN for my setup. These work great and i have no problems with it.

This connection goes maybe 12ft through a glass door to my room. Here i have a Network switch from Linksys. from here i split it to my file server desktop, my laptop, my other desktop, and my wireless router. I know its relly far from the source but it gives off 54mb/s and its fast so i have no problem with it.

So then i have another wireless LAN box thing. (these dont inerrupt eachother luckily) and i have it running from the main router to my mom's desktop. straight to her desktop.

2 months ago this all worked. perfect!

But starting last month... it all went downhill. My mom's internet wont work. her email can't find the server but it's still connected (so the network thing in vista says)

A few weeks later my room internet starts to slow up to the point where everything times out. At this point my mom's computer now says Limited or No Connectivity. Mine is still connected.

Through all this my dad's computer is normal. nothing wrong and he cant understand our problem.

But this past week. His internet died. So i disconnected everything from the modem and plugged it straight into his pc. Taking the time to unplug it and let it reset as i should. And he needs this for work purposes. But it died. So we called bright house and they came out yesturday.

They tested out connection yesturday and everything worked. We all thought it was a bad modem but now it worked for my dad! so today i again plugged everything back in. and well what do you know.... nothing worked. But it still works on his desktop!!!

Please if you can tell me what the problem is i will be glad to try it. Anything would help!!!!

And if this is in the wrong area tell me where i should put this thread and ill make one there too.

Thank you!
