Happy Super Bowl Sunday everyone!

Just started to have a problem with my wi-fi. Won't connect now to my home wi-fi, it is just stuck on obtaining IP address. Never had this problem before. I have both data & wi-fi on. It always connected to my wi-fi when I'm home automatically. I appreciate any help.

Try resetting your router. Just unplug the router for about 1 min and plug it back in and wait about 30 secs until it's good to go. Try that.

You know, this is really strange. I had issues with my home internet yesterday as well right around the same time lol. Did you also have connectivity issues with other computers/devices?

That's so strange, I have broadband with my local cable company and we were having general internet issues around the same time you posted this thread, lasted for about half hour maybe if less, but really weird lol.

Odd, wasn't all day, but later in the afternoon closer to game time, reset our router about 3 times and I gave up and just left for a party lol so it may have been down longer than that but was fine after the game when I got home.

Superbowl crashed the internet. Just sayin' lol

Your welcome. Sometimes, if you have the modem and a router hooked up resetting the router works but if it doesn't you have to reset the modem by unplugging it for 1min. But that's usually if you don't have any Internet at all. But most of the times if your wireless device can't connect to your wireless network its usually your router. Good to hear it resolved your problem.
