router randomly dropping connections

[Gabor Szabo]

After sending the e-mail  I felt a bit embarrassed and went back to the
router.
I noticed the light of the cable where I am connected is blinking rather
fast.
Replacing the cable fixed the problem.

This also explains why noone else in the house complained :)

Thanks for listening!
