Have you tried reseting your router or modem?

Reset the router to default settings, not disconnect the power.

Should be able to do it through the routers setting in your browser, or look at your router and try to find a reset button to push.

Ohh, I know how you solve this, but I forgot. I forgot the IP address solution. DAM! It's something like go to the router site, the number things [220.watever]. First look at your IP addresses and then go to that number site and u do something, but I forgot, sorry. My sister knows, but shes in college. :x

This happened to me last month.
I called my provider and turns out the cable to the wall jack was not plugged in correctly.
