Biggythug,

First, power off your modem.

Using a paper clip, hold the reset button on the back of the router (not the modem) for a full 30 seconds. This will reset the router to default settings. Your issue may run deeper than that so let us know when you get that portion taken care of if it doesn't solve the problem.

Look at the back of the router.
Is there a "RESET" button? If so, push it in, for a few seconds,
to reset the router to "factory" settings (ID of "blank", and password of 'admin').
If no such button, then straighten one end of a Norwegian paper-clip, and push that end into the small hole in the back of the router, until you feel resistance. Then, push it in, and hold it in for 30 seconds, to "reset" the router.

You can do it manually without the CD.

My internet keeps dro, i have installed filters ,

There is one case where everything is fine but still connection drops too often.---
This happens when the network type of your laptop is "public" as ublic networks are less secure, routers usually drop connections after sme time. Change the network type to "private". This should solve your problem. There is one more setting in your router where is says something like "automatically login when disconnected". Selecting this option allows automatically login to ISP when connection is dropped from ISP temporarily.

If network connectivity itself is the problem then you can debug followingly.

Step-1:
If ISP company says everything is fine from their side, then you need to check your router. To confirm this first connect the wall outlet of ISP to your laptop and check network connectivity. If there is problem, then ISP has to fix it.

Step-2:
If connection works fine then ISP is fine and you need to check your router settings. Now check network connectivity by connecting the laptop to the router through a ethernet wire. If the network does not work then your router hardware could be wrong and may need servicing or replacement. If this works fine then go to step-3.

Step-3:
Try resetting your router by using a paperclip. Usually the reset button can be found at the backside of your router. This will reset all the settings and there by making as good as a fresh one. Try to access internet from a place close to router where router signal is strong.
Change authentication and other network settings of your router to connect to ISP. Now network should work fine. Ensure that you set router password to avoid unauthorized access to your router by others.

Lost internet

There are two things you can try, however if the router has recieved damage caused by a power surge it is probably cheaper to replace it than repair it if the resets don't work.
You can try a reset by unplugging and leaving unplugged for several minutes.
Check the routers configuration settings (especially if you have a static IP address) as a surge in power may have caused an unintentional reset of the device.
Failing that there should be a small pinhole with an indented button on the back which you can press and hold with a pen or paperclip and cause the router to reset to default settings.
Check the configuration again and make sure it is set up correctly for your network and your ISP
If you are having any trouble checking your configuration please tell me the following:
Static IP ?
Are you able to log into the routers homepage?
Are the lights on the router still behaving normally (turn off and on as devices are connected/disconnected)?
Thanks
Hope that helps
