Reboot it!

[innocent_lex]

So far today I have rebooted the Virgin box four times just to get it to work. I needed to do this because my network was down and rebooting the virgin router and my wireless router had no effect. Nor did rebooting my computers (work and home). Lots of rebooting.

Then the fridge started wailing at me. It wails at me when I've left the door open. Since I hadn't opened the fridge or freezer today I was a bit puzzled. I opened the door to find out what was going on. Crisis! Its little red light was flashing to say it was too warm. This is not even vaguely possible. I hit the button to shut it up, turned the thermostat to a lower temp and left it. It wailed again. I turned the button off. The instructions say to make it colder. It doesn't go any colder. I've put a thermometer in the freezer to find out what temperature it really is, and in the meantime... I rebooted the fridge. Yes, indeedy. Am looking suspiciously at other electrical appliances in case they start wailing at me and need rebooting.

Daft bloody world.

Well, it sounds like you may have an electrical supply problem to the house, then.

If it continues, you might wish to call the electric company and see if there are any power problems in your area, and if not, see what's involved in having someone come out to check your power.
