I've been looking for a computer repair place nearby in JC but ones I've looked up look kinda sketchy and untrust worthy. Anyone have a computer place in mind that they trust? I'm having internet issues with my PC and could really use some assistance. (and before anyone asks, I'd like the help but I have literally tried anything, down from driver repairs, driver replacing, etc.)

Have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in?

tried everything, you say? Did you run a live operating system (like maybe Puppy Linux booted from USB drive) to rule out all software causes?

sounds like a physical connection issue. if you're on a wired connection, then the port or cable might be bad. if you're on a wireless one, then the antenna might be broken or loose. contact your isp first to make sure it isn't the router because if it is then it'll be less money and hassle than trying to diagnose what could be any number of things on your pc. if you own your router contact the support site of whatever brand made it

Yup, tldr, call your ISP and ask them to do a health check on your address first

How about purchasing a USB wireless adapter?

Do you rent your modem? If so, your ISP may swap out your modem to a newer model.

Internet issues usually aren't going to be on your PC, usually it will be the something to do with the other stuff (modem, box outside the house, maybe the pole outside).

Its something worth calling your internet provider to come diagnosis why it sucks. Should be a free call.
