Hi, Rachael, Thanks for your messages concerning the router.
I should have said that he does not want the modem on very much,
which does have an on/off switch.
The BN recognizes the router, but without the modem nothing
happens, of course.
Tom Lange, I think it was, suggested turning off the SSID
broadcast from the router so that others cannot see it, and I
will suggest that to my husband.
The other problem of concern is lightning strikes. We have very
few of them, and I think that if a storm is imminent, I could
turn the modem off! Grin!
Thanks again for your comments!
Kathy

Hi again Kathy,
I forgot to say that you might point out to your husband that, if
they meant for the router to be turned off most of the time,
they'd have put a switch for that purpose! I haven't got one on
mine. You just have to unplug it if you need to turn it off,
perhaps for a reset when it's being cranky!
Again, HTH,
Rachael

Hi Kathy,
For what it's worth, our router is always on. Always! HTH,
Rachael
