    Aarrgggh!!!

    LOML was complaining the wireless network was glitchy all day today. By the time I got home it quit working. I spent about an hour futzing with the setup, factory defaults, upgrading FW, etc before concluding the router was broken. I then spent 15 minutes trying to find the receipt so I could get it RMA'd. After not finding it as a last gasp I swizzled the antenna a bit. Was not expecting anything since nothing has changed. It is now working like a champ again.

    The ghost of Guglielmo Marconi has smiled upon you!

    You might think I haven't contributed much to the world, but a large number
    of the warning labels on tools can be traced back to things I've done...

      Hijacking a thread here with a piece of trivia:

      Marconi was sued and lost in court over the invention of the radio. The real patent of the radio was Nicoli Tesla. But the legend carries the story more that truth.

      In todays court, it would probably have been granted to Marconi, for the way he did it. Tesla invented it, distributed his facts and findings in the scientific community, but did not seek the patent until he saw that Marconi had patented his design two or three year after he (Tesla) had invented it.
