Hi, I need help on what I should do. The globe/earth symbol on my DIR-651 wont stop blinking and my internet has been slower than when I upgraded my internet speed. Sometimes the globe symbol turns orange and I lose internet. When I upgraded my internet speed, the globe/earth symbol light used to be constant and rarely blinks. I used to download things at max of 500-600KPBPS(I know I still have slow internet lol) now I download things at 220-260KBPS, what should I do??!
