The Intarwebs are Falling! The Intarwebs are Falling!

Well, actually, it was the Netgear Craptacular Wireless Router.

We resolved a portion of the problem with an M-60 sized hammer drill with a tamping bit and, for final polish, a 20 lb hammer.

The stress-portion of trying to raise a dead router has been resolved.

New router tomorrow.

I peeked at Amazon, and for that particular model (WNR854T) there were 101 1-star reviews out of 160 total.

Yeah, this happens a lot.

Pictures were taken, but they'll post another day...

I hate router problems. I have a Netgear, I guess I got lucky.

Hope you get your intarwebs back soon.
