My modem is on the other floor, and the cable (i think its called Lan) from it goes outside around the building into the other floor into my computer.
It is now minus 10 degrees.
I have noticed some erradic behaviour since the temperature drop.
Does temperature affect it? or is it something else?
I didn't think it made much difference, but maybe there could be a microscopic break in the cable somewhere, that is made worse in the cold weather because the metal contracts :unsure:
If anything, the connection should be better in cold weather maybe, less resistance and all that :ermm:
Barbie's suggestion of a break in the cable is a possibility, but I think that would cause problems at any time. More likely any problem is upstream from the modem.
