Technology exorcism

Another $100 and the technology evil demon exorcism is completed!  Bought a commercial grade 24 port switch after deciding that cheap isn't worth the pain of failed gear.  It went in easily but sadly did not fit my rack as the switch was over deep for the shallow rack!  So it sits but it WORKS and the network is once again well behaved.

While I was moving things about I brought a printer down stairs and installed it in one of the unused bedrooms.  It's much more convenient and saves wear and tear on my old knees.

So for this round I've two failed switches/hubs and one failed cable modem all within about a week.  Wonder why it is so?  Sadly it seems so.
