The Internet has been acting up at my house - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I have Comcast for internet, and it's just been nothing but trouble for me. Can't even connect to my main network, have to use the other network that shouldn't be even used at all and my mom is the only one that seems to be having luck with using the main network. And I am getting these messages saying Unable to join network/Incorrect password for network.

Why is this happening to me?

The Internet got fixed last night after a call to Comcast was made. It was most likely the router, because that can act up a lot.

Yes unplugging router often helps

Well, my dad did not want to take the chance of having to unplug it himself. So what Comcast did was they sent a signal to the router and then rebooted.

I have had to do that many times... unplug the router and plug it back in. It works about 60% of the time. I have had one or two bad routers over the years. And sometimes it's a problem on the other end (the service provider).

I did suggest that to my dad, but he said no.
