I see nothing much has changed after my link was chopped by a nearby lightning strike during the Brexit vote!
It remains to be seen if Open Reach intend to charge for a visit where they determined that my router was fried as they had 4 vans in the lane plus a cherry picker only the next day.
The replacement router livened up the wi-fi and Devolo links but also highlighted an ethernet connection failure:-(
Webmail by i-pad and my wife's laptop worked but is frightenly clunky.
By a stroke of good fortune, one of our members was able to supply an ethernet card and spend a great deal of time sorting me out:-)
Thanks Tim.
