So i called my service provider and after 30 minutes of waiting for a tech i finally got the answer that i usually get from my service provider So what i am suggesting is if anyone has the same problem you should contact your service provider before making any major changes to your system.
Sure, try some of the steps that are mentioned throughout this forum but before you go and restore your computer to its original factory condition i suggest calling your internet service provider first. Good luck. Tuesday, May 24, AM. Sunday, June 5, PM. Been having this problem for a good long minute Tuesday, June 7, AM. Friday, June 10, AM. Saturday, June 11, PM.
