A. A change in your connections:
-
Power cord
-
Coaxial cable (with the screw-in end)
-
Network cable (if your device is connected to the Wi-Fi modem with a RJ45 network cable)
Even if nothing has been touched recently or everything seems well-connected, check each of the connections listed above.
IMPORTANT: These cables must be well connected at both ends.
B. A change to your Wi-Fi modem’s settings, such as:
-
Changes to the password, network name, etc.

Changes to the channel, ports, IP parameters or DHCP, etc.
