mse and windows update not working

[fivealive]

so i turned my computer on and started updating my anti virus and it failed repeatedly was going on about a internet connection which i had access i was able to browse the web.

so i checked another computer in the house which has windows xp and same issue. malwarebytes pro on both computers and they updated fine

anyway i went into the modem and rebooted it and the issue is working but does anyone have an idea WHY it started doing this or the cause maybe and why rebooting the modem helped

because it was working fine last night

More than likely there was just a hicup on your modem/router. It happens in my home from time to time where either one computer can not access the net or the net is running slowly. I reset my modem and router at least once a month to keep it running smoothly.
