-- Posted by cheeseball giver at 1:33 am on Oct. 18, 2008   Sometimes my internet won't work and I think its my router sometimes. or maybe even the satellite, since I have satellite internet.   But its like this..                           I get on the compy to use it, and the internet doesn't work. Its connected to the router, but the router sometimes doesn't detect internet signal. Then when I look at my internet connection status, my IPv4 says internet. My IPv6 says limited. Though, I think its supposed to say local. If you know, please post. If your wondering, this is one of the less times my internet now works. -- Posted by acausedelle at 1:38 am on Oct. 18, 2008 Well, I am going to say this. Wireless routers can be stubborn at times. It may say that it is connected, but really it has no or a limited signal. If it says that it is limited, then it is limited, and it will not work. When my router acts up, I can just disable the router, and reconnect it to regain internet reception. If that does not work and your internet is still acting up, then restart your computer. That always does the trick for me, and it probably will work for you. -- Posted by cheeseball giver at 1:43 am on Oct. 18, 2008 Thanks, I did the router thing you said up there a few times before, and it works sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. But thank you! -- Posted by vitamin at 2:11 am on Oct. 18, 2008 you need to be sure that your are being given an IP address. You may not have ipv6 address but you will have an Ipv4... Go to the run dialogue box and type cmd press ok... Then type the following into the Command prompt,.... ipconfig/all Now you should see an ip address let us know what you find....
