I need help with Internet Connection, my current modem is not working and my router would not work without a proper modem currently running sufficiently. However, my current modem is running not smoothly, therefore router is unable to also support internet connection for my laptop. I also use the neighbor's router connection.

Any suggestion how I would access Internet Connection other than paying and purchasing a modem from a good Internet Provider? Example, remote control and using an Internet from another location. Any suggestions?

P.S. I have a laptop.

I would suggest shutting off your modem and than turn it back on afterwards. I always have that problem as well, and it would work everytime.

It doesnt work. I tried that several times.

Did you disconnect the router from the modem? Than you take the wire off from the back of the modem so it turns off? I would wait about 30 seconds and plug the modem in first, and wait for it to start up. When none of the lights were blinking any more, I would connect the router..and it would work perfectly.

wait, are you a dsl user? @_@;
Bboy Stan's way is for the whole system to cool down and repower itself or something like that.
but i've had problems with verizon before. since my house is a resident account, i heard they dont make us their first priority so hence our connections sometimes arent all that great :|
if you have a business account, they make sure you get high speed connection all the time to keep your business running o_o
(hope you understand what im saying lol)
but anyways, did you try calling tech support? maybe there was a power outage in your area not too long ago.
