A faulty appliance (washing machine) tonight gave a very violent surge and tripped the safety switch in the breaker box.
My expensive SpeedTouch wireless router wasn't on a surge protector - and it's delicate circuits took a big fry-out.
After 4 hours of trying everything... it's finally struggled out of it's coma, but a real close call - so just a warning... get surge protector extensions for all power areas where you've plugged in your best gear.
