I'm constantly loosing internet connection, and everytime it's a different problem.?
Okay, so, since yesterday, I noticed my internet connection went on vacation, so I did the usual: Unplug modem and router for 30 seconds. (Maybe more). However, this happened around 3 times in the same hour. It then worked fine for the rest of the day. Now today, it's happened about six times. What I notice, is that it does fix itself when I unplug, but everytime there's a new problem.
There was a "The DNS server is not responding" one that came up 3 times though. But just now these happened. I'm not a tech--whatever you call them. So naturally I don't understand what the fuck any of this means. What is the DNS server? What does all of that in the screenshot mean? And how can I stop from loosing internet connection? Thank You. -Freddy. Ads |

When you try to connect to a web page, you enter the domain name such as Yahoo.com.
Computers however don't know domain names from adam. Instead, a DNS server (Domain Name Server) keeps a list of all of the IPs associated with a name and when you type yahoo.com your computer asks the DNS server what the IP is and the computer then uses it to reach out to Yahoo's server. Ads |
