Update: wifi router only connects if unplug/plug power

Thx, G. You have been a trooper.

I am going to give Netgear a little more time to see if I can control it better. I gave the old Linksys another try, and after just a few hours, doing a Windows "Repair' results in inability to reconnect.

I have found a $50 new fangled solution to using old phone lines that looks promising, and I bet you know what I mean...no one else much seems interested in these tech-weeds type problems.
