I was told to unplug the modem....is it the box that the cable company gives you? or is the big box which I call the computer? I am sorry but I am very computer illiterate...thank you for any replies. I have a Dell computer if that makes a difference. Sherry
Is everyone laughing at me???? Come on now...this is not a joke. I was told by someone that it is the big black box that sits by the monitor...I do know what the monitor is....please...Sherry8
Sherry the diagram in this link will show you what is what. http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=h ... image&cd=1 Hope this helps you out.
Thanks Eileen....I thought that was the modem until someone else said it is the big box or the computer...I couldn't find a site with a decent picture...I plan on being back soon..I have things so messed up...thank you again...Sherry
Hi Sherry, most modems are external to your computer but may also be inside the computer. Basically it will be whatever your phone line connects into. From your description your modem sounds like it may be a external box provided by your cable company. Unplug it, wait 15 seconds and then plug in again.
No one is laughing at you...everyone has to start somewhere...and the only way to learn is to ask questions! OK?
No one is laughing, Sherry. I promise you that. We want you back on here ASAP. Let us know how it's going.
