Erghh RMC not blocked as I am currently at work using it on my meal break. Using a RM machine.
You can't be also your IP does not match.
Just asked one of my staff to see if they can load it using the desk top comps using the LAN cable and he can also access it.

Mmm. Interesting. :hmmmm The last time i tried to get on here from work, it denied access. I wonder why they removed the block. Still, it makes things easier, getting the access back. Thanks for letting us know. :Applause

I don't know what a LAN cable is.
I wouldn't know how to reboot a wireless router.
And you are confused.......?

Local Area Network - Basically the old fashioned way of connecting computers when you don't have a wireless network.

Reboot a Wireless Router - A hard Reboot is "Turning it off" :left: A Soft reboot could be just pressing a reboot button if it has one, or a software reboot which is fairly complicated and not recommended for those of a nervous disposition.

It's a good job you didn't talk about a WAN (which RM work off) and which cable to use for a LAN (Cat5e is best) and nevermind adding in fibre optic to the mix (and 801.11 a/b/g/n)
