I cannot connect to steam and world of tanks, But I can connect to every other site and server.
So how do I fix my router so that it will allow my pc to connect to steam and to world of tanks? I am a A+ certified computer technician and hold hardware certifications with several companies, yet e...
- I agree, especially since you said that it doesn't work when connected directly to the modem. That's proof that the router is not involved.
It's odd to see so many non responsive hops for traceroute, but the final hop is responding, so that means the router should be working.
I also had an issue when the ISP came out and also noted the same dozen+ hops to the first gate, so I don't know if it has anything to do with this or not.
Have you tried connecting your PC directly to the modem? Does that work?
I tried it last night and it didn't work but I will try again.
Do you have or does Stream require any port forwarding?
It hasn't in the past, but I will try it and see what happens.
You could try doing a factory reset of the R8000 and see if that helps.
That was the first thing I tried. :smileyfrustrated:
I borrowed my roomates laptop and plugged in ethernet directly into the router and it worked fine. Even did a tracert and didnt drop, so I think it has to do with my PC. I will try system restore, if that doesn't work then I will reformat.
