Please help me cure very odd router/pc connection problem? I am lost!
NOW SOLVED :)
I have a BrightBox router using fibre via wifi.
Over the last few weeks (no specific event comes to mind) I have had the weirdest problem and I really need someone's help please.
I am a member of one specific group where I spend 80% of my time when on Facebook. The issue is that my pc has taken to not loading the next post when I have scrolled to the bottom of the page. Same happens on my lappy and Windows phone .... nowhere else just that one group/page.
Here comes the odd part .... when my daughter brought around her iPad, connected it to the very same internet/wi-fi, suddenly the page works on my pc, phone and lappy. When she leaves it reverts so we repeated the process just to be sure.
I have wandered around many setting and haven't a clue. Rung the BrightBox router people and they say tough nothing to do with us but (to me) it clearly is.
I have ...
~ reset the router
~ tried the magical on/off at the socket
~ cleaned cookies, cache
~ extended disc clean-up
~ defragged
~ and cleared the DNS
~ rebooted at every stage
Using the wonderful tutorials here I tried downloading the Setup A Network link from Tutorials to see if that might help but it failed to list any routers let alone my BrightBox.
This is what I see in the Network and Sharing Centre ....
I wondered if starting again from scratch and making a new connection from router to pc might work but can't find out how to get rid of the existing one (if I should), how to disconnect the one I must be using or how to make a new one?
Cruel Daughter refuses to let me kidnap her iPad so I have turned to you my techy friends to try and help me please. I am techy dim but can follow instructions. Being stuck indoors with heart failure my pc is my most precious way to pass time and keep in touch with life :)
All any any advice hugely welcomed. (I took a cut'n'paste of my BrightBox page and sent it to myself as an email so can copy it here if that can help at all)
