basically, my wifi for dpi was working fine yesterday then it just broke basically. it says i have an inet address but when i connect to pso it doesnt work. also the modem is constantly flashing green lights. dont know what to do, and i cant use ethernet because the router isnt in my room and i tried doing a complete reinstall of the dreampi image, and that also didnt work.

What type of USB modem do you have? Both lights flashing doesn't sound normal. It could be that the Pi isn't getting enough power. Is the power adapter you're using at least 1 amp?

Ok then there's something wrong with the modem or it's not getting enough power like I mentioned. You should never see flashing lights on the Dell modem; they're either on or off.
