Okay, there was a huuge storm in my area which made my wireless internet shut down sporadically.

It's been FOREVER since the storm, but for some reason, my internet's still acting weird. Like... Whenever I watch a video on youtube, it goes for a few second then freezes up. Whenever I'm on Aim, I can talk to my friend for like... 2 lines, then it freezes up. It's also extra slow and really annoying.

I'm not sure exactly what's wrong...

Have you tried connecting your computer directly to the modem and using the internet that way?
If it still acts weird, it's probably something wrong with your phone line (if you're using Verizon or something) or your ISP.
If not, there's something wrong with your wireless router and/or adapter.

that happens to me with my cable, i could be watching and then it freezes yes it freezes, and there is a huge storm happening at the minute. It could be like an aftershock of the storm or something, i dunno how to explain it but yea. maybe a few more days it wont act up. lol sorry that didnt really help.lol

Maybe there's a problem with your router or the cables? Or your computer could be having connectivity problems. Like what Elaine said, you could try connecting your computer directly to the modem. Otherwise, try to get some technical support.

Try resetting your router (unplug for 15+ seconds or holding down the reset button) or reconfiguring it (go to your router's domain). Hope that helps!
