What will you do when your Internet is down? email this discussion to a friend?

What will you do when your internet is down? I have very little patience. I restart my computer, do some power cycling on the router and if it does not help then I call my Internet Service Provider and I blast at them. I know that they are poor guys who cannot help us but what to do? So what about you guys?

I usually just occupy myself with other things. Sometimes they might have issues over there in internet land they are trying to fix. The problem usually clears up after some time. Though it seems like it happens way too often with mine

I have to say that I do not have that much patience as you do. I try to concentrate on other things but I cannot divert my mind for few minutes. I return back to computer just to check whether internet is working or not. If it is not working, as I said I will call customer service and blast them.

I would normally do other stuff while I wait for the page to load. I normally play games or watch television while I wait. If I am urgently needing it, I tend to restart my computer and reset the router repeatedly to see if it works. I know it is not very useful but there is nothing else that I know that can help.

Well because I'm using a LAN connection so if my internet connection is down then the first thing I do is check the lokal network by checking the connection to my router or my modem. If my connection is bad (ping check) then I will restart my AP (Access Point)or the modem. If my connection still bad then I will call my ISP.

If there is no connection at all with the net but the lokal connection is okay then the problem definitely came from the ISP, and if it happens, I just call them.

Hi friend,
i just listen to songs and wait for the internet to come.I wait for 1 hour.If it doesn't come than i call to the internet guys and ask them what is the wrong? Depending upon the answer i will slowly concentrate my things on some thing else.
Sometimes i go for a movie too......

Hi there ravusri. Since i changed my internet provider i have had no bad moments of the internet not working, but i will answer this question as i don't always feel like staying online. I think i will either use the computer for a game or a movie, or just set it on music and read (if i am alone) and if my girl is here, apart from movies and games together... there are always various actions that we can do that don't need a computer.

Mumble under your breath, what fools run it all, and how could they do this in this day and time.

But the Good thing is knowing "They will BURN IN HELL for this SIN",

They won't life is not fair,Ill now go back at GLARING at the PC.haha

Thankfully that has not happened to me for a long while but, if it happens in the near future then I shall go absolutely bonkers! I would have to indulge in other things though if this does happen. I love reading and so, this will take the place of my Internet connection for a short while. Andrew
