Yeah what they said about manually entering in your IP and all those other number.number.number type things in the internet settings occasionally works.
Had the same deal happen to a lot of people on the Playstation network too, where even a wired configuration would inexplicably "forget" its associations and just not work.
The power cycle thing sometimes kicks it in the ass too.
Though if you've changed your actual internet type...is that a setting you can indicate too?

All I can really suggest for now is completely power cycle the modem, then go through your internet settings from scratch, entering in as much information manually as you're able...your ISP should be able to provide you with the relevant details.

I have no clue what a "power cycle" is and the dicks at at&t want to charge me 50 bucks for tech support.....:mad:

Like, just completely power down your modem and unplug EVERYTHING including the power cord from it.
Leave it for a few minutes, and then plug it all back in again.
That's a power cycle.
As I said sometimes it's effective.
But yeah it looks like you're gonna be stuck entering in all your IP shit too, if that doesn't work.

Nah, it was known as something that fixed shit like this so I thought I'd give it a shot, glad it worked out.

Oh yes! I´ve always gone crazy with some particular games,
I remember back in the day I almost broke my tv, it did black out and make weird noises for a few days, after I started kicking it hard when playing Tekken 3.

It's been a long time, but I remember how frustrating this game could be with one of those stiff 2600 controllers:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5jEpUiy_bc
