My internet seems to be functioning totally normally and the modem's lights and etc are working fine and then it crashes after like 5-10 minutes. There's no change in the modem lights or anything and it's not my wireless adapter cause all our computers are affected. When we reset it, it works fine for another 5 minutes?
Also, during the 5-10 minutes that it works, it seems to blink on and off so it's slow-fast-slow-fast. and when it's disconnected, i have vista and instead of the 2 computers+globe, i only get the 2 computers. I think that means that my comp is connected to the wireless network but not to the internet. Is this a modem problem?
I'm pretty sure my modem's really old and i have Linksys router.
ALSO, will switching my modem or my service to Fios help solve the problem? PLEASE READ EVERYTHING BEFORE YOU RESPOND. Plus, i have a Vista Toshiba Satellite laptop.
