No internet! Oh yes there is.

The discussion on BT packages etc has reminded me of a problem we have in SDA Towers. We have FTTC and the cabinet is only about 50 yds down the road. On my desktop, tablet and phone there's rarely any loss of service and the speeds are fine.

On the other hand Mrs SDA uses a laptop, tablet and phone and is forever crying out in frustration that 'there's no internet'. I check whatever I'm working with at the same time and all is fine. I check the router and all is OK. A few seconds later she'll call out that it's OK and the wifi is working again.

So why do Mrs SDA's devices have problems and mine work fine. What common issue could affect her kit but not affect mine?
