What could that possibly have to do with anything that's been said in this thread?

A lot. I live in an apartment that has free internet. So sometimes people hook up a router backwards and I'll pull an ip from their router instead of the main switch. Whenever that happens I can't get online.

It's quite common actually...so many people know nothing about networks.

I don't see how a game can mess up your router. When you hard reset it...you should have to redo all the settings. Did you have to? If not, you didn't hard reset it completely

Can access Router but internet doesnt work

now i do nothing atall... the internet just keeps changing when it wants to?

i have no idea whats doing this

[Deathwish238]

When the interest is working are you connected directly to your modem or to the router?

[DanzP]

im not sure, because the modem is connected to the router

but i dont touch anything when it stops working, so its doing its own thing

[Deathwish238]

What the fuck...

okay...brand and model number of the router please

[DanzP]

its a Philips SNB5600/00

[Deathwish238]

hmm that didn't really help me. You sure the modem is connected to the Modem port on the router?
