loving internet, i hate you

[Eussorus]

okay so i left my house around 4:30 to go get something to eat with a friend, i come back around a hour or so and my internet wasn't working.
we try to find out the problem, we fail, again and again and again.

i say "let's just call the company"
they said "just unplug everything for 10 minutes and plug it back in, guess what? it loving worked.

i don't care as long as it works now.

Your router requires intercourse.

Rule 1 of internet connectivity troubleshooting:  Unplug, wait 10 seconds, plug back in.

Every once in a long while my router needs a reboot like that.  It's also your router/modem's fault, not the internet's or your ISP's.  Rebooting helps to refresh it, because it runs constantly 24/7.
