[QUOTE="NanoBite, post: 254792, member: 13565"] Hi Alexis, Here's the run down on Power Cycling as opposed to turning the power off, then on again, as per D3v1L80Y's post: To power cycle your router properly, simply unplug the power for at least one minute. Leaving it unplugged for this amount of time allows for routers and other DSL equipment to see that your line has dropped, and to reset themselves so they'll be ready to re-make the connection when you turn the router back on. You may wish to take this time to reboot your computer as well, just in case the computer is causing the connection problem. Plug the power back in, wait for 30 to 60 seconds as the router boots up, then attempt to access the Internet as you would normally. If everything works correctly, then you're ready to go. [/QUOTE]
