What about the people whose router configuration (which was done by a
friend months/years ago) you just resetted?
Better prepare for some house visits to restore SOHO router
configurations :-)

And I think that the more you know about a certain topic, the more you
are able to find nice & half-decent solutions. Resetting the whole
device just because of what is a maybe temporarly problem doesn't seem
clever to me.

But I understand your point.. At some point in time first level support
gets boring.

Regards,
Christian
