For the second time ever, I "rebooted" my "modem" ... by unplugging power and clearing out whatever was there, then plugging back in and waiting. I am, or was, able to google stuff, but using network tools finds aristotle for ethic, and cannot find ns1.thought.org. Mail to -test got thru moments ago, so this probably will too. Nutshell, it was not-that-wise advise to "reboot" the router. This was the abs last thing I expected. Fortunately, within ten hours things ought to be back up. gary PS: if there really IS a ``reboot'' button of that bloody thing, I sure as hell didn't see it.
