I have a lynksys adsl2 gateway modem, i have two computers connected to it, yoday when i was on the internet id just disconeccted and the dsl light went red, i thought and wate a bit cos i thought it just might be aol, bt having a problem...after an hour or so the intrtnet would not come back, so i decided to try my other rig...and i found that the internet was working perfectly well, but it still will not work on my other rig, any thoughts?
 
Have you tried right clicking on the wireless icon and selecting repair?
 
EDIT: Mike beat me to it!

try restetting the internet connection on the comp that doesnt work

Control panel...network connections....repair connection on the correct feed if there are multiple options.

if you have 2 ethernet ports try the other ???
 
switch the cable?
 
Switch ports on the modem. Maybe you lost a port.
 
if the internet is red you might want to call your service they might know whats up because its the service and not your computer or anything. try doing that get back to us.
 
emm, who do you think i should phone first , AOL or lynksys, internet is working on one computer, and not the other :(
 
Is your modem a DHCP server for the computers? Maybe the IP address got borked.
Did you try turning off the computer and restarting it?
 
your using aol?? thats something i never heard of in ages. maybeyou should try giving them a call or something figure it out. if its not aol could be your router. restore system settings?
