Be honest, I get it—PC vet advice can be a bit awkward.

I checked my router settings and switched it to 5 GHz. I looked up some information online and found instructions on changing the channel. I followed those steps and tried it, hoping it would boost performance. However, after doing this, the internet connection disappeared. Now when I type "192" into Google, it doesn't work anymore, so I can't restore the 2.4 GHz setting. That’s frustrating!
Connect your PC straight to the modem using an Ethernet cable. Also, keep the distance between your device and the router close if you're using Wi-Fi, since 5GHz signals struggle with walls and weak coverage.
Im in the same room as the router and there no wifi signal and i dont have a ethernet cable
Yes. 5GHz offers higher speeds, though it covers a smaller area.
The router's web interface should display its default gateway IP address. To identify this, run a command prompt session and execute ipconfg /all. Identify the adapter linked to the router and check for a "Default gateway" listing.
