PC - Weird internet issue - View Post

I've got a tech-question so I think it's best to post it here. Let's get the worst thing out of the way first... I "steal" my internet. I'm using wi-fi to surf on probably my neighbours network. Before that I was allowed to surf on the connection of my downstairs neighbour.


Now a strange thing is happening. I am connected to the network, I have a decent signal and connection (enough to surf at least as it has always been.. I could even game online) but for the past few days the connection apparantly means squat for my surfing online. Wether I use firefox or Iexplore I can at times not connect to the internet while the connection is there. Even weirder, my MSN works, I can still chat, just cannot browse. Sometimes I can, like now for short periods of time but I'm kicked off at times while the connection does not change.

This previously happened to my downstairs neighbour network aswell. I haven't had the chance to ask if he talked to the provider but the connectivity there hasn't been fixed yet.

Anyone got any ideas? I only have my Wi-Fi stick plugged in as of now and I have disabled my firewall though it doesn't seem to matter.
