Cable Forum - Moans and Pet Hates

My old router died last night (LRT224). :(
The power supply appears to have gone faulty, and eventually took out the router.
Its been solid for 5 years, so I suppose I cant complain too much, but still annoying.
Had to press an old Wifi router into service while I waited for Amazon to deliver me my new one.

Why are routers so flaky? Most other electrical devices, radios, toasters, fan heaters, last for decades.

You are confusing electrical with electronic - toasters, etc. are quite simple machines; routers are mini-computers.

Your radio/toaster isn’t on 24/7, carrying out complex tasks like a router…

Cat-sitter £160 for 10 days

Vet bill: check up, vaccination, meds, nail cutting etc £350

(the cat-sitter will take the cat to the vet for only additional £20)

Bloody ridiculous!

I cannot leave her alone. Friends and relatives cannot have her because her vaccination has lapsed (they have pets too)

But the shit hit the fun. I have abdominal pains (colic), I am cancelling my trip to Korea.

Sorry to hear you are having to cancel your trip.

Maybe if you can now get your cat's vaccinations up to date it will help give you peace of mind when you are well enough to travel and can leave her with someone you trust to keep her safe.
