Ben: so, uh, remember when I said I'd just revert your router if anything went wrong..... well.... haven't been able to get it to boot, yet... doh! There are still a few reset tricks I haven't tried, so it may come back from the dead. But I ordered you a new one (the linux-based linksys... which is supposed to be the best, most reliable) in case it's a ugly blue and black paper weight now. okay... feel free to pile on the "told you so"'s now :)
Chang: Hahaha
Ben: :P
Chang: Reverting to the old firmware isn't working, eh?
Ben: it's not responding to pings... which makes it hard to load the old firmware back on
Chang: Ah
Ben: I found instructions for doing it with a little soldering, though... which could be a fun project. may attempt one of these days
Chang: Do you have a soldering iron?
Ben: nope
Chang: That could be interesting then...
Ben: real men solder with matches
Chang: headdesk
Ben: lol
