Internet Problems, Updated

Well, my Internet problems did not go away.  Even after I tried rebooting, and unplugging and rebooting.  I decided to get a new router, because mine was so old, I could not use the Smart TV with wireless very effectively.  Well I did not have too much difficulty connecting the router.  And I can tell the difference in my laptop.  I also connected the TV to the new network.  However, my Internet problems did not go away.  But I discovered that I can change from Microsoft Edge, which I did not load onto my laptop, but which showed up after a Microsoft update, to Internet Explore, and I can access the sites I was having trouble with on the Edge. We shall see how this progresses.
