** Back in business ** My network modem got fried

[Crossroads]

Are you sure it got fried,Petri, as opposed to grilled, roasted or BBQed?
Bolied or poached, perhaps?

Propably an electric surge, they happen every now and then here. My PC's proteted, but realised the modem was not plugged to it.

So you're right: baked, grilled or even BBQed rather than fried? But definitively not boiled :)

I will need to get the autopsy report before I can tell which bbq seasoning was used, however!
