you know.... I got my modem/router and had no problems with it for 6 years.
Twice now, in the same year, it has stopped sending signal to my computer
requiring me to reboot it. The first time it happened really screwed with
me as I didn't know how to fix it for a couple of days. I guess it is going
bad. Just remember this for the next time something like this or that
happens.
