I'm off...

Post by Thomas_M »

Well, kinda offline. Our router died during a thunderstorm yesterday evening. Ordered a new one, hopefully arrives on Tuesday. More bucks burned...

Crazy rare for solid state electronics to fail like that. Hope you're back online soon
Thanks,

If your contract is older than two years most providers will send you a new one for free. Did you check that?

Fingers and toes crossed, Thomas! Good luck with your new gear! (And yes, typically when things are at their ‘most lean’ is when we have to replace and rebuild!). You will get through this!

Not Telekom... Back then I asked them for another router, as the one we used refused us to enter the settings. Telekom offered us a new router, but on a monthly basis. No way I pay them for infinite time.
Got a Fritz!Box then, great stuff! Worked flawless, until a lightning hit nearby. We only noticed the next morning when internet and phone did not work.
Bought a new Fritz!Box. Installation and stuff went like a breeze! Other good news is that our insurance pay the bill for the new box! :mrgreen:

PE bicycle kit? The Benz Motorwagen?? Please, have some more respect of German engineering: without this invention you still would cruise the new world using horse carts! :whistle:
