okay..
so a month a go I canceled my comcast internet to switch to verizon fiber optics. Before, my notebook was working fine when comcast had a separate modem and wireless router. But now, verizon has the 2 in 1 thing, where the modem and router are together.
So here's the problem:
When i try connecting my notebook to my internet via wireless, it would disconnect about every 2 minutes and re-connect itself. But when I connect directly to the router/modem with a Cat 5 cable, it works fine.
Now, I figured out that the only time i use wireless internet and it DOESNT drop and reconnect is when I dont have AC adapter connect to my notebook to charge my battery. When the AC adapter is connected, it drops my internet off and on.
But, before i figured out about the whole AC adapter thing...i called verizon, and they sent me another "modem/router"....but this thing doesnt even work! The coax light doesnt stay on. it is fucking much bigger than the other one, and looks much older...Its seems like they are just fucking with me and sending me this piece of crap, I tried calling them back, but the wait to talk to a "representative" is about 25 minutes..
so now...i'm wondering what can i do? is there something wrong with my notebook? because it never did that before when i was using comcast and the whole separate modem and router. Or is there something wrong with Verizon's piece of shit modem/router?
help please
