Turn off the power on your router and your cable/dsl modem. Turn on the power to your cable/dsl modem and wait 30 seconds. Turn on the power to your router and wait 30 seconds. Then go to a CMD prompt on your computer and type IPCONFIG /RENEW. This should be successful. Then try your Internet connection. If you can browse the Internet, you should be able to download your updated virus definition files. If not, it may be time for the annual renewal fee.
