Internet issue
The internet on my parents computer isn't working right. Sites like google
and youtube work, and you can search on both, but the links on google don't work, and videos on youtube don't load. Some sites partially load, and most sites don't work all together. My own computer works fine, so I don't think it's an issue with the modem or router. |
