Just got woken up by a thunderstorm. Looks like my router and only my router got fried. Modem is fine, PC and switch hood. Unfourtunantley, I lost my Netgear wndr4500. Not dead, as in lights come on, reacts to plugin of Ethernet, but doesn't boot. Tried to reset firmware via ftp and reset switch. Looks like it's dead. Sorry for the ramble, and bad grammar or typing, on my phone as my internet is out.

Edit: my power never went out.

Check your house circuit though if power didn't went out but the router died maybe it should have gone out, that's why you have fuses and stuff.

Have you tried defibrillators? 

What do they know of England, who only England know?

"Well that's what I always said I wanted to be remembered for, for being honest. Nothing else is worth a damn"

Remember,

 

CPR.

 

Circulation, Airway, breathing

 

and then shock when the AED tells you to.

I had a computer.. and then I let FedEx ship it.
