Hey. The power outage may have caused a problem with the wires. If you have a wireless connection right click the computer icon and hit repair. If that doesn't work, call you internet provider and they should be able to figure out the problem and tell you how to go about fixing it. Good luck ♥ fabulous

Since your computer has just recovered from a power cut it may have just started up in shambles (best way to describe it, lol). This has happen to me many times when everything will be extremely slow and in the task manager I will find that everything (especially Internet Explorer and Explorer in general are both eating up system resources at an incredibly fast rate). The best thing to do if this happens is first start up the computer again and if it asks you if you want to boot into safe mode, select yes. Once booted up in safe mode shut the computer down and then reboot into normal mode as per normal.
If it booted up normally after the power cut and you had the problem of everything slowing down then I suggest shutting the computer down completely, waiting 5 mins and then restarting. It should now work perfectly fine again. If it doesn't and it's only the internet which is the problem it could just be the ISP having bandwidth problems (you can get huge bandwidth problems with extremely bad weather like a lightening storm or heavy rainfall).

What I do when my computer is running slow is open up the task manager and close all the applications I'm not using. Just give it time and it'll work better after a bit.
