Kids Please help with router problem!
I'm new at routers, networking and all that so I would appreciate some help. At first the router was working fine for about a month, both computers could connect to the internet and all that. About a week ago we went on vacation and when we came back the router wasn't working, the only way we could get on the net was through a direct connection. We have no idea what the problem is or how to fix it. My uncle said to try turning off the router the modem and the computer and then turning them back on in different orders, but that didn't work either. Could someone please help me?

If you turned your router off for more than 7 days, you may have lost the DHCP IP address the ISP gave you. Maybe you should call the tech support at your ISP and see if they can even ping your modem or router.

With my ISP, if I lose the DHCP IP address, I have to go to their registration website and set up my connection all over again.

I'm pretty sure we had it on the whole time we were gone.

see if you can ping the router. If you have not changed the ip of the router then the address will be 192.168.1.1

If you go to the Status page, does it list an IP for the WAN side?
