Why is my internet connection messed up?

Question

My internet is getting 'limited or no connectivity' it is working but very slow. I can not play online games without it shutting off. I have a wireless internet connection, but my computer is the main computer, the one that is wired. I have a Linksys wireless N router. No one is hogging bandwidth, because no one has downloaded anything in the past week or so. I have tried unplugging my router, and plugging it in 30 seconds later no luck. I tried unplugging the router, then turning off the computer and then turning the router and computer back on. No luck. I have unplugged the modem first, then the router, then turned off the computer, then plugged then modem back in then plugged the router back in, then turned the computer on. No luck. I have repaired 'Wireless connection 3' the one that has limited/no connectivity. I've also tried repairing all the other connections. No luck. I tried disabling then enabling wirless connection 3 then I tried disabling then enabling everything. No luck.

Answer 1

From everything you just said, I didn't see the part where you actually bypass the router completely (just take it out of the loop) and connect the modem directly to your pc.  If the problem continues, setup a service call with your provider cause you're having what it's called "packet loss".  One way to find out if you have packet loss is by going to the command prompt and type: ping -t yahoo.com ... the ping will run until you stop it by pressing Ctrl + C on your keyboard.  Any "time out" replies that you see on the output is packet loss.  Packet loss is pretty common on high speed internet when you have cable internet (like Comcast).

Answer 2

You have two problems, the limited connectivity on your wireless, and a slow connection on your wired.  Disable the wireless adapter, you don't need it if you are using a wired connection.  In your other Q I suggest trying a different ethernet cable.  Also, try a different port in your router
