Hi Mandy,
Yes, if you are in someone else's house, and there is no
possibility or risk that it's using your own wireless
connection. Anything above about 100 yards away from your
house is probably a safe bet.
Just about the only option left to test, would be to take
your router to somewhere else away from your home, and try
your own router out.
If it still fails, it is clearly the router.
If it does not, then I'm afraid to say that it would suggest
there is something locally causing the problem. From what
you describe, you are not loosing connection to the router
itself when you are at home. And so it appears the router
is therefore loosing connection to the outside world.
If it is a broadband router (Sorry if you've already said)
it could be something as simple as a bad connection at the
point the phone wire come into your house. Or it could be
somewhere else between house and telephone exchange.
Was the router supplied by Blueyonder? If so, might you be
able to persuade them to swap it?
George.

As I know so little about these things George: if I'm using
someone else's wireless connection wouldn't that
automatically mean I am not using my router? If not what
else could the fact that there were no problems with the
other connection suggest considering that when it loses
internet connection it still says it is connected to the
wireless network with strong signal?
Do you think any RNIB volunteers would know about wireless
networking?
I'm sorry to go on about this you must all be as sick of it
as I am.
Any other ideas, also George, about not being able to link
onto links in emails if it's nothing to do with plain text
or html? It seems the sane whether I use Jaws 7 or 8.
Mandy.

If you are also going through someone else’s router,
then it does very much suggest that your may be at fault.

Sorry about this hopefully this will be the last
time I write about this other than getting Steve's help - I
am now connected to someone else's network and it is staying
on perfectly well does this prove it's a router problem?
