Problems with connection
« on: May 29, 2015, 10:31:34 AM »
Hi there, I don't know if this is the place to ask - but I am at my wits end! Since opting for a Freebox router in January, I have had intermittent connection issues, but they have never been a major issue. But slowly in the last week or so, getting on to only certain websites in IE has become almost impossible. And one site is a CMS where I need to upload products, so it is a real headache. I have presumed up until now that it is a problem with my router/server. BUT in the last day or so, when I have experienced these problems, I have used my laptop - and there is no issue at all! So it can't be my router can it? It is an issue with my pc - a virus/internet settings/avast settings? I got this message today on the CMS "if you using SSL make sure your certificate is valid" (I don't know if this is relevant) Any help you could give me would be appreciated - I don't know where to begin!!

I have just been trying to get into all three of my google accounts and non of my passwords were recognised. Just tried it on my laptop and everything was fine. I think maybe I have a virus?

Actually, I have just tried the CMS I need to upload products on to and I am still having difficulty. Not to get on to the site, but once I am there and do a bit of work, I can't upload and carry on??
