A few days ago I began experiencing internet issues. I'm not sure if it's a provider problem, modem, or something related to my software or hardware. Connecting to the net is hit or miss, and when connected, I get a lot of "ServerTimed Out" messages. I can usually resolve those by reloading the page, but sometimes not.
I have two pc's (one is wireless) and both have the same issue. The problem seems to occur mostly when I click on a hypertext link. Everything may be working great (and really fast) for a short time and then it slows down to a crawl or stops completely. I've rebooted nunerous times. Hopefully this post will go through before I lose the link...I just never know. Any ideas?
Im experiencing the same thing lately, for no apparent reason, the connection to the net just stops. I can ping my email account but not move page to page with a browser. I normally use Firefox but also have Mozilla and IE, plus an IE clone; all four of them can be brought up and none will budge. Then mysteriously it runs fine, sometimes. I have tried re-booting to clear the problem; usually that works but not always.
I think its the first signs of dementia and indication of an incipient PC failure. My wifes computer of identical age just smoked its motherboard; they are the same make, model, etc so Im looking at replacements.
