I would contact your ISP man seriously. Also try plugging the ethernet cable in and disable your wireless connection and see what happenes. That's all I can think of as of right now.

Re: Internet problems

Check your router's firewall settings with its web-based configuration utility. Also, if you have any software firewall program running, temporarily disable that and see if you can connect. If so, you'll have to adjust your firewall rules to allow traffic on the ports that your particular games need to use.
