I have Verizon DSL and a wireless Linksys router with speedbooster. I only have it so I can go on Xbox live wirelessly. It's only connected to my xbox and there are no other computers in the house. It was working fine until today. I tried to connect to MSN messenger and it says something about the gateway appears to be offline. Other services can't connect as well but I can go on the internet and use AIM just fine. Does anyone happen to know what could be happening?



This is the error message that comes up when I press repair on the network connection:


Windows could not finish repairing the problem because the following action cannot be completed:
Clearing the ARP cache

For assistance, contact the person who manages your network.


I am the administrator and I control the network so I don't know why it's saying that.

Sorry it took me so long to reply. One of my friends just got into a car accident and broke his spine, another friend had a brain aneurysm and suddenly died, and I just got into a car accident last night.

But yes I did try resetting the router and it still doesn't work and now I can't connect to Xbox live. I tried system restore but it won't let me restore it to any previous date.
