I have had an ongoing issue with my internet. I get a warning of "Connected, no Internet". It's been a real battle trying to figure out the culprit.
One of the oddities is that when I call Optimum for support they say there are two routers. It even happened when I bought a Netgear router. The first thing the setup screen said, can you disconnect the other router. There is no other router, but it appears the z-net may be showing as one. Can this be? Anyone experience anything like this?
I'm curious if there's a way to disable the z-net wifi. I've never set it up, since I'm hardwired. For awhile I had the z-net going into a switch, the minipc with HS3 going to the same switch and the switch going to the router. But now I'm back to a more conventional, everything directly to the router...no switch. This, just in case that could have been part of the issue.
The other weird thing is the z-net wifi shows 169.254.xxx.xxx and that's nothing like everything else on my system which is the usual 192.168.1.x. What's that about?
