Yes that does make a lot of sense. Ive done a little bit of research and found surges though coax cables can be just as damaging as through mains. I never gave coax cable must thought until your response. Surges through coax may also explain why I havent been able to get routers to live a very long life here. I keep buying more and more expensive routers and they dont last any longer than the previous ones. I also have a Squeezebox Receiver which will no longer connect via Ethernet (after almost 2 years of trouble free performance). I replaced it with a Touch and now the Receiver is in a closet ;-) I now have the cable routed through a surge protector in an effort to prevent a repeat of this. I have now discovered the Damaged Touch no longer responds to the I.R. remote. I havent yet decided what to do about the Touch and amp. All this expense comes three weeks after I replaced my computer (which thankfully was not damaged). -- CharlieG ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CharlieG's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32439 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88797
