1/25/2011 11:44:04 AM | I have been having internet browser issues recently, but I'm not sure why. My internet connection will still be working (I know because I have tested other programs that use the internet), but I am unable to use a browser (IE, Firefox, or Chrome). The browsers just say they can't pull up any webpage. The only way I've been able to fix the issue is by unplugging and replugging the power from my wireless router. |
