For the last 2 days, I've been experiencing problem with the internet.

Some of my favorite websites like Movie-List and the other ones where I get the GG photos from wouldn't open for me.

I go into MSN Chat and my friends say they could access the site; a few times I was able to access Movie-List and I had a couple of members here try the other sites and they say they work fine.

Then I wouldn't be able to access Movie-List and the other sites that wouldn't open for me started working fine for a short period.

My DSL comes into the house from a wall phone jack, into the DSL modem, from the back of the DSL modem into a Netgear Router and into the PC.

So tonight I was trying to unplug and power down the modem and the router for the times and I noticed something.

The A/C power supply cord (larger) for the Netgear Router was plugged into the Modem and powering the modem and the A/C power supply cord (smaller) was powering the Netgear Router.

Once I switched them out; everything started working fine.

My question is how did that affect my modem and the internet; I know there are quite a few "Tech Geeks" here!!
