Router fight
« on: October 21, 2026, 11:58:59 AM »
My broadband hub died last night. No WiFi, no laptop, no Alexa, not much TV

Called Vodafone.

90 minutes on hold  Banghead Banghead

Explained the problem, yes done the online service tests, no, no lights on the router. I NEED A NEW ONE Angry9: Angry9: Angry9:

Another 45 minutes on the phone

New one arriving tomorrow  :thumbsup:

Just checking but did you try unplugging it and plugging it back in again?  rubschin:

Of course  ::)

I wasn't trying to be funny. I've seen similar router issues fixed with a hard reset
