[QUOTE="rcltrh, post: 284721, member: 15752"] Is your cable modem showing a cable signal during times when your internet is acting up? It might not be the wireless, could be the cable modem or the cable connector itself. Unscrew the coax cable from the modem, swab the copper inner wire with alcohol or an electronic solvent or similar then reconnect it to the modem. Most of the time when I have problems it traces back to my cable connection - either on the modem, the wall, or outside in the junction box where the cable comes in. Also unplug and reseat (replug) the flat plug wire that goes from your cable modem to your router a few times to ensure that it is getting good contact. [/QUOTE]
