well when i go on websites, some of them go all funny looking, like everything is in weird blue text, and all along one side.. I will try and get a picture to show you what I mean.

Facebook doesnt work, Neither does Youtube, and half the time I go on google, it wont open any links

I have had to go back to using Safari.

I hate macbooks.

I get that sometimes.

Tried a hard refresh? (CTRL-F5 on windows, no idea on mac)

I also find rebooting the router or clearing the DNS cache works.

I tried ctrl f5, and that didnt do anything, so i thought it might be that little flowery looking key instead of ctrl, and it started talking to me... very odd.

rebooting router etc... I have NO idea how to do that, I don't touch the router .... does that mean just switching the power off and on again?

Thats something to do with missing CSS, for some reason or another. I don't use firefox so stay with me here. But when i was aggressively blocking adverts sometimes external css with the word ad in the title was blocked and hence wouldn't load. Anything to do with that? After flushing your dns cache too

Just another little thing on the Alt+S thing in FF. I know it's probably stating the obvious, but once you've hit Alt+S, because it highlights the button you can just hit enter to submit the post

When I hit Alt-S I get the history popping up, I'm missing something here.

I've only ever seen those issues when the housemate is bashing the connection and it only half loads. Rebooting the router normally means turn if off, wait 15 seconds, and turning it on again. The only other option is resetting it - paperclip/small screwdriver into the slot and hold until the lights blink or go off. That'll reset everything though so is normally a last resort unless you have and know how to put all the setting back in.

Pardonnez-moi if I've got the wrong end of the proverbial stick (fnarr!) but is this any help to people?
