Someone on my ISP's help Forum suggested to "Clear all your temp internet files restart the router and computer and see what happens."
This worked
I had tried Firefox's Clear Temp Internet files / Cache a few days ago but I used CCleaner and Firefox's Temp Files / Cache cleaner today and this time it has worked.
So today I go to 192.168.0.1 and "The connection was reset" error has come back!
I did exactly what I did yesterday to fix it and it didn't work!
So I completely deleted all cookies, cache etc with CCleaner and I still get "The connection was reset" error!!
Go to Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network and Sharing Center
Click on hyperlinked Local Area Network >Properties>TCP/IPv4>Properties
WARNING: Note down the current IPv4 config before trying any of this.
Use the following-
IP address: 192.168.0.100
subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.0.1
Preferred DNS:192.168.0.1
Alternate DNS:-Blank
If this does not work try-
IP address: 192.168.0.100
subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.0.1
Preferred DNS:61.0.0.5
Alternate DNS: 61.1.96.69
If this does not work try-
IP address: 192.168.0.100
subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.0.1
Preferred DNS:61.0.0.5
Alternate DNS: 61.1.96.71
If this does not work try-
IP address: 192.168.0.100
subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.0.1
Preferred DNS:8.8.8.8
Alternate DNS: 8.8.4.4
If nothing of the above shows up your modem page by typing 192.168.0.1 restore the setting that you noted down.
So I have deleted all cookies in Firefox within Firefox (Not with CCleaner) and since I have done that I have had no issues with the "The connection was reset" error.
Fingers crossed it has been fixed!
Thanks for all your help guys
Much appreciated!
Uly.
