Wifi Kaput

phelana · 05-13-2009, 02:46 PM

I had wifi issues at my house. Comcast came and put in a new router. I know the tech person added some stuff (Comcast Sites and Security) to my desktop. I don't know that he did anything to my config but I had wifi at home no problem. Sunday I flew and in the airline club I could not access wifi. I was connected and the strength was good/excellent but I could not get into a browser or email.

Now I am at my second house and the same issue. I can get online using the LAN but cannot thru the wifi. I am connected and the signal strength is excellent. What could be the matter?

The head IT guy from my Bonaire cable provider came to my house here in the Caribbean. The Comcast tech had put a static address in my network wireless adapter if that makes sense? I have wifi now.
