Hi all,
I am running VM broadband using their Superhub in modem mode and using a TP LINK router as my, er, router. Was experiencing slow to load web pages etc and did a software reboot. Didn't seem to improve much. Ran (well, not really, waddled) to where the modem/router is and pulled the power out of both. Once both powered back up, things were back to normal.
Now if I were experiencing lower than normal connectivity, and I decided to reboot the router, should I choose doing it via the software (GUI) or the mains? Is there a functional difference?
Obviously in this case I don't know whether it was my router that was playing up and hard rebooting that fixed it as I also did the modem at the same time.
