Seems my DSL router has died.. the LEDs are all on as they should be but the DHCP server is down and even if I manually force IP addresses I can't manage to get a connection.
I'm logged in via serial cable now (I thought I'd kill myself the day I have to use a serial port again).. but unless a wonder happens and the whole ethernet part comes back on I'm off for tonight. And I'll spend the next two days locked in a hotel to do some training and most likely without a modem line so it might well be that I won't be back until Friday evening (I also need a car to go shopping for a new router.. ours is in the shop).
Just letting you know that it isn't an MPAA conspiracy if I'm away for a short while.
