We had a power failure this morning (high winds tend to do that around here). Ironically, the power came back just as I was crossing the road to the bus stop on the way to work. If it had been ten minutes earlier, I could have restarted my computer, but for whatever reason, these newfangled computers don't restart themselves when the power comes back on, they have to be turned on manually. So my computer, and hence my webserver and mailserver were down all day. That wasn't too bad, since I was expecting that. What I wasn't expecting was that when I got home and turned on said computer, the networking stayed down. And the networking stayed down because the router wouldn't turn on. And the router wouldn't turn on because... it's broken.
Looks like I'm going to have to get a new router. In the meantime, I've reconfigured the ADSL modem and my server to talk directly to each other, so hopefully the mail and website should be back up again. Do let me know if they aren't, please?
