If the ISP has been messing around, your network may have changed.
Is there a modem in there somewhere?
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
- Turn off and unplug modem.
- Turn off router and computers.
- Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
- Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it connect.
- Turn on computers and rest of network.
This bit means nothing to me.

I can't tell what is plugged in to what. HDMI connects local stuff and isn't something that connects your router to the Internet.
