So my internet is working fine, but when I try to connect to FFXI and Team Fortress 2 it simply doesn't connect(I assume the problem would be similar with other games but I haven't tried). Web pages, chat programs, and Steam loads just fine. I'm really lost on what could be keeping me from connecting to FFXI etc. I know it isn't POL being a pain in the ass and it is something wrong with my internet. (Team Fortress 2 wouldn't load any servers either)
I am on Comcast.
I have turned off the surge protector then back on.
I have unplugged the cable wire leading to the modem. I also plugged the cable wire coming right out of the wall into the modem. (A previous problem involved a faulty wire/splitter.)
I am using wireless. Linksys WRT54G Router.
The wireless panel shows me connected to the internet.
Internet icon on the taskbar says "Connected" and "Excellent" connections.
If I left anything out I will post it ASAP. Thanks.
