ANNOYING INTERNET ISSUES

[Shadowdiamond201]

I really need help with an issue I have been having with my internet. I live in a house with about 4 people who use the internet all the time and for whatever reason all my devices will loss WIFI connection and never be able to reconnect unless I reset the internet. I don’t get why this issue only happens with me because My room in the House is about 15 feet away from the modem and there is only 2 wooden walls from my room to the modem. This really annoys me because the problem can tend to happen more frequently when ever someone gets on the family desktop computer. There isn’t any reason that I know of for this to happen and there is also no reason that I can think of why my devices can’t reconnect when I move them closer to the internet box and try to troubleshoot the network connection. Every time I do troubleshooting it comes up with a box that says there is an error with my IP address or something like that. Can someone please tell me why this happens because it really ticks me off when my whole family can use the internet but me. My family uses a frontier modem that can hook to DSL. I don’t know the make or model.

So it's multiple devices losing connection in the same area? 

 

1. Are you on 2.4 GHz or 5? There could be interference in the form of some other device emitting a signal

2. Are you sure there's no physical interference, like a large, dense object, to block the signal?

1)I don’t know which GHz I am on or how to check/change it but this does seem possible since the problem amplifies after someone connects to the internet on the family computer and also the fact the problem doesn’t go away unless I reset the internet points to the possibility that im being blocked off the internet from all the network static.

 

2)Yes I own a laptop and an iPhone 6 and they both loss connection at the same time and I don’t think that it could be an object blocking the signal because my Devices should reconnect to the WIFI when I get in the same room as the Modem, but my devices don’t. (I will loss connection and go sit right in front of the Modem with my laptop and phone, and nothing will change)

ISP provide equipment or your own?

 

How old is the equipment

 

[Shadowdiamond201]

Modem only a year old. Was provided by manufacturers

Q1: What sort of connection are you using to connect to the internet on the PC? WIFI or Ethernet?

 

Since you are getting an error on ip address it could be a DHCP error on your router.

Q2: Have you tried speaking to your internet provider for either an update for your router or a replacement router?

Q3: How long have you had this issue?

Q4: Was there any change around the time the issue started to happen? Was it when you first connected your PC to the router?

You could be reaching the max load on the WiFi Radio's. How many devices would say could be on this network at the same time?

 

Depending on the router, what do the logs say from the DHCP table (assuming you have access to the router).

 

My gut feeling is that there is a great load on the Wireless network Radio's and they are dropping off users.
