[QUOTE="yusecki, post: 336558, member: 26463"] Lol at Dadsgravy, that could be it :D Sadly resetting the PRAm did not work. And no I doubt its the wire as sometimes when I have restarted after the internet failure I have not touched any wires and still it works when I log back in. As soon as I can I will run Tech Tool to see if there's something corrupted or maybe even a virus. I recently discovered my college server has a virus [pc] and this may have somehow affected my own computer, though I doubt it, I have no other leads. When the internet fails it fails. It will not reconnect and will not find any web-sites, diagnostics say the ethernet works fine but the internet and server have failed. Restarting the computer is the only cure I have found but it won't stop the internet failing again later. It can fail for any reason, even a simple html page could make it go down. Could there be some virus or similar related to the network that only affects Macs? This might explain why I am the only one affected, although one of the other PCs has had some trouble he doesn't need to restart. [/QUOTE]
