    Oops

    Router is on the windowledge....
    Not a good idea today. My connection died, and it took me a while to work out what the problem was !
    However, a few bursts of air duster and putting it on the desk have helped, and we're back.
    So - something to be added to those Help Desk scripts
    Society's to blame,
    Or possibly Atari.

    I'm not joking as well. Back on the days of having bulldog ADSL my router was in a similar place so crashed a lot.

    I took off the SSID and password stickers, flipped it over and it worked much better with longer uptimes so you may want to try that.
