Just a note of warning.
I may lose Internet access from home sometime soon. As some people may know, my dad's renovating the master bedroom in our house, the problem now being that he apparently needs to move the phone and power sockets.
I don't have much faith for his success. He's already ruined one end of the ADSL cable by trying to hammer it through the wall (quite a while ago), so I worry when anyone touches the cable. But this is really disturbing.
I'll be able to get on from college, but losing access from home would be apalling...

The danger seems to have subsided, but you never know when it could come back. That cable is very fragile...

Actually, the danger has just resurfaced: we're putting the cable through the loft at long last. This'll be great if it works, but if something goes wrong I'll be without Internet access for a while.
Just so's you know.

And now the danger has gone again.
This is getting silly.
The cable is now in the loft, so I have permanent acess to the Internet at last! (Unless someone pulls the cable out.)
The end of the cable where it fits the plug is still fragile, though...
