I dont know if anyone else experienced this, but last night at approx 9:30 my internet connection was disrupted and would not let me connect for about 20-30 minutes.
Prior to the loss, I was in the middle of a game on Call of Duty 4, when my friends were complaining that my voice chat breaking up, so as per usual, switch off console, turn off router, turn of modem.
But just before I did this, I noticed the router lights flashing like mad, as with the modem lights, of which the second one from the left in particular seemed to flashing at approx 500 times a minute.
I waiting 20 seconds or so, rebooted the modem, but something unusual happened, I noticed the blue lights on the modem were all very dim indeed, almost invisible.
I then continued to reboot the router, and then subsiquently tried to fire up the xbox, but still no connection, and an error message blaming the cause due to dns problems,
I tried using open dns values but still nothing, finally i decided to unplug everything, waited 5 or 10 minutes, rebooted everything again which seemed to do the trick.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to a probable cause, or was there any planned outages last night in warrington? WA3
