Connecting an access point, router or cable modem to the Internet is broken
After turning off the router for a day and turning it on again, it started to show a table with the choice of network type home, etc. After selecting Wi-Fi it connects, but with an error. I start troubleshooting – I do the standard operation with disconnecting the router for 10 seconds, after that it gives the result – “Connection of an access point, router or cable modem to the Internet is broken.”. And with each attempt to the name of the network is added to the number corresponding to the number of attempts.
Response:
You have described the problem in general terms. There is very little specific information.
- Is the problem on your computer, what Windows is installed?
- What is the error after connection?
- Is the router connected to the internet? Are the required indicators blinking?
- Are other devices connected to the router and working?
Try connecting your laptop to another Wi-Fi network. We need to understand what the cause is: on the computer, or in the router. In the comments give an answer to the 4 questions, and I will try to advise you something.
Update
Since the author didn’t provide detailed information about the problem, and visitors come to this page hoping to find a solution to the error “Access point, router or cable modem connection to the Internet is broken”, I decided to add some standard tips that should help you.
- The first thing you should do is reboot your router (if you have one) and the computer where the error appears.
- Next, check to see if the internet is working on another device, through the same router. Connect your computer to another network, if possible.
- Try to remember what you did before the error appeared.
- Do a network reset: instructions for Windows 7, and instructions for Windows 10.
