Internet is not Working

Physical Connections:

1. Reboot your computer. Sometimes the DHCP server becomes busy or otherwise fails to respond within the timeout, causing your network connection to fail. Rebooting causes this to repeat and often fix itself.

2. Locate your router and reboot it. This can be done simply by disconnecting the power cable from it, and after 10 seconds, reconnecting it. If you do not have internet connectivity 10 minutes after power cycling your router, attempt rebooting your computer again.

Example Router:

3. Check your cabling. Locate the ethernet cable (image below) connecting to your computer and assure it is securely connected. Also confirm all cables are securely connected to your router.

4. Check both ends of the power cable to your router. If there are no lights showing on the router the cable is likely loose. If the power cable is seated securely on both ends and there are still no lights, try plugging the cable into a different outlet.

If you have rebooted your machine, router, and confirmed all cables are securely connected please contact us for further assistance.
