1. Is your desktop wired to the router or wireless connected? It is wireless. When this happened yesterday, my desktop was disconnected, but my son was currently using his laptop online. So the modem was functioning at the time.

3. Perform a factory reset and reconfigure it manually. .......Is there specific settings that re suspect? If I was to start from scratch, not sure of required settings.
