Anyway i recently got a new computer that is connected throuhg a linksys home network to the internet... I had just gotten it and left it on in my room... Much to my dismay I came back after getting some cheesy toast (got to love that stuff!!) and my bro had somhow turned of the internet for my computer but not the rest of the house...

 

 

 

I do have a firewall and such but he didn't fiddle with those as i shut down both programs and the computer still couldn't get on the internet...

 

 

 

The rest of the house still has internet axcess ( :x )

 

 

 

Anyway i saw him shut off command prompt right before i got to him so it probably has somthing to do with that...

 

 

 

 

 

Any help would be nice :D

 

 

 

And p/s i can't ask him and such and such as A. he is camping this weekend and B. he wouldn't tell me anyway and my parents don't care

start >> settings >> network connections

 

 

 

He prolly just disabled your wireless card / LAN ethernet stuff. Just double click it if it says disabled and it should reenable it.

I checked that... it says that the internet is connected... driving me nuts and i am losing rs playing time :x :( :wall:

is your browser just set to work offline by anychance? wat comes up when you load your browser?

Nope checked that too

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

on the bottom of the window the loading bar fills about halfway up and then stops for awhile and eventually an unable to connect blah blah blah message will come up... getting on my nerves now i'm gonna have to beat him to a pulp when he gets back :twisted:

Thats a bit weird... I love when people mess with your computer then claim they touched nothing ro did everything properly when its obvious they messed somethign up :evil:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

maybe you could try setting teh whole thing up from scratch again, ie uninstall everything to do with your wirelsss netowrk and start again?

He possibly blocked the router from sending signals to your computer. Try loading up the Router settings on the computer that he was on when it stopped working.

If not, stupid one but check the wires are all plugged in right! i've done that a load of times

Anyway, i have checked the plugs and all that again and again... really irritateing... Ah well

Linux boot disk, change his password gain access, configure internet settings.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Or ask him?

Unplug the Linksys Router, grab all the cables. Shove them in your bed covers or something and get your brother or make your parents tell your brother to tell you how to fix it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Untill then, none of them get the internet. :D

Or use the cable to tie him up and the router as a flail/mace with the power lead?

Hmm...So it the secret mission that he turns off his *own* internet - that's why you get him a computer?

Btw, I can't believe it's been 5 days now and you actually don't have it working? Tell your god damn parents! If they don't do anything...well, erm...call child line for child neglection? :oops:
