Nothing worse than when you want to do things, play games or download something, but your service doesn't work >_<

Hopefully the tech coming today will fix it.
 
The internet went out at my work on this past Friday. They were not able to get it back up by the time my shift was over. So, Friday was a pretty easy day for me due to this problem.

naw, cache issues between the two. Had the tech out (again) today, seems to be all back to normal now.

Do you mean DNS cache, or the cache on your web browser?

It is strange that cache can still cause so many problems with Windows wifi and internet not working. I remember reading many years ago about DNS Cache problems causing Windows to have internet problems, so I expected cache problems to be more rare these days.

I thought it was DNS cache, but changing it to google's didn't help. So by blasting my browser with its own cleaner and Bleach bit, things started to work again.

I think using private/incognito browsing mode where the history is not save may also work.

I usually run disk clean up once every few days, so I usually don't experience cache problems.
