Re: Moans and Pet Hates - Part 8
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…
