Reset your modem or router:

Reset your modem/router, a router is just another computer and can be stuck running calculations that it shouldn’t be.  A hard restart should solve this problem.  All you should have to do is unplug the modem and/or router, wait ten seconds, and plug it back in.  Once it cycles back, login and see if the problem is still there.

Use a hard-wired connection:

Connect to your modem/router with a cable.  This is probably the easiest way to test if your wireless connection is causing problems.
