If yes, then there may be a limit to the number of devices the router can cater simultaneously, via WiFi AND Ethernet, and maybe you've reached that limit wihout knowing it. If not, well, as Spiff said, your router got off its rocker and needs to be reset. That too should be done when other users aren't around, or prepare the earplugs... | |
