What is this and how can I know for sure?
Just point out again that the problem is not only to one computer.

you dont have a virus they are retarded.

hold in the reset button on ur modem until shit starts flashing. But plz before you do it make sure you know your PPP stuff for the username/password and not the one to log into ur modem's specs i'm talking about the one that grants you access to the internet from within ur modem.

also, do you have a router??? If so i wanna make ur modem work in bridge only and setup the PPPoE from the router

I have NO IDEA what you are talkin about. What us ppp??
and what username pass you are talking about?

sigh

Can someone tell me first where the problem is?

Try calling the ISP again, it sounds like they are fucking with the lines or something. I cant imagine a virus being this selective it allows connections on wireless but shuts down dsl.

I had a weird problem like this about 2 years back. There was a problem with the actual phone line, and the tech came and had to go into the phone room in my building, and then deal with it. Afterwards it started to work again. Just call a tech imo.

oh I didnt notice you had mulitple pc's behind a router that also cant connect. If you dont know enough about how to configure PPP on a dsl line or how to adjust any other settings you need to just tell your ISP that your shit is down and they had better fucking fix it or else youll just cancel and switch.

I called them again and now they are sending me a new DSL modem!
I REALLY doubt this will fix anything but its free they told me.
Now Im left a week without internet!

I really doubt that the cause of the problem is in the house anyway.

Capaneo, you can try some of these -> http://theos.in/windows-xp/free-fast-public-dns-server-list/
Bottom of the page also contains links where you can find exactly how to change DNS servers. But as I read this thread, I doubt it'll work.. But at least give it a shot

@capaneo
go to services
see if your wmi has been started
also check if your internet gateway is "connected"

also, just reinstall windows. usually it is the easiest fix

Thanks everyone.

Just now after two days the way suddenly internet stoped working since 5min ago it is back working normal again(I think cause I havent checked out the speed ect...)

I got a brand new free modem+router for my two days of trouble though
