I lost my internet connection between Friday afternoon about 3 pm and Friday evening about 7 pm.

No idea what happened, tried a couple of things that didn't work, so OH called our geek guy on Saturday morning.

He couldn't come until late Sunday afternoon or early evening.

It took him less than 10 minutes to look at what had happened, take out 2 plugs and put them back in.

Hey presto, contact again :-D


The only weird thing was that we have my desktop and laptop and OH's desktop computers all connected to the same WiFi and Router.

Both my desktop and laptop lost the connection. His never did :-0 :-S

I used his computer to check my email, and discovered that I had received the invitation to make the appointment for my second jab, now have to do that.

I find his keyboard set-up very difficult .... it takes me twice as long, with small keys, and awkward positioning for me.
