Trying to decide if I feel sh!tty enough to send and e-mail saying I'm working from home tonight or wait to see how I feel in the morning.

Had a power cut last night from 12am till 2am. Now I'm getting a WiFi connection from the modem but bugger all via the hardwire?

3 out of 4 of the comps in this house are hardwired.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

There is an exception to every rule, apart from this one.

Probably stupid to ask but, have you rebooted the computers having issues?  Actually disabling and re-enabling the network connection should suffice, but more often then not, a reboot is simpler to explain to people.  Do the wired computers get IP addresses via DHCP or have you statically assigned them an IP address?

It was something to do with the Network mapping of the Win 7 machines (XP comps had no interruptions).  I deleted the internet network and then installed it again and all was back to normal.  Not entirely sure why that happened that way, but trying to refresh/reset services didn't resolve the connection?

Maybe it was using an old network route.  Hard to determine now but glad you got it working.

Awaiting a new washing machine.  They'd originally told me between 6.30am (I kid you not) and 5pm.  Apparently it's because of the Olympics even though they are only going from where Chek lives to here, which is all pretty much West London and the Olympics are in the East.

Good new is it's been whittled down to between 12pm and 3pm.

everyone has a cellphone now, so always tell them to phone when their on their way, doesn't tie you down quite so bad.
