Cable Internet access uses cable television wires instead of telephone lines to connect to the Internet. It is extremely fast and does not tie up telephone lines for incoming or outgoing calls and faxes. SURFboard cable modems are capable of downloading up to 100 times faster than traditional analog phone modems, when comparing download speeds with a traditional 28.8k analog modem. Actual speeds will vary, and are often less than the maximum possible.

Sometimes this issue can occur if you have lost connection to your internet service provider (ISP) due to a power interruption, but there are other causes as well. To reset the connection turn off your computer and unplug your cable or DSL modem and your router if you have one. Wait a few seconds then plug your router back if you have one and after it has finished the boot up process (generally 20-30 seconds) then turn your computer on.
