Yesterday morning my computer suddenly disconnected from the internet. I live in an apartment building and Comcast is my ISP. I have a D-link wireless router connected to the modem and a desktop & laptop that both connect wirelessly to the router.
Both computers connect to the network but now only my laptop can connect to the internet. Luckily for me there are other residents in the building who have unsecured wireless networks and if I connect to one of them my desktop connects to the internet perfectly. I only have problems when trying to connect through my own network & only with my desktop, which coincidently is the one which handles most of my uploading/downloading.
Am I being targeted/blocked? any thoughts would be appreciated.
