Yeah you spotted the blurb in my memory. I realized this but forgot to fix it. It is Cat5.. for some reason The thought of Coax was in my mind at the time of writing and I put that... slipped my mind to return here to fix it. Cat5 Cat5 Cat5... Here is where I stand for you alone to take your free punch on me, and as a fair warning, I'm gonna put a cup on just for safe measures.

Good spot tho..... CAT FIVE!!! damn.. what an aweful mistake to type huh?
Nothing is wireless.. I don't think. Hmm.. wait a minute.. there might be a wireless router SOMEWHERE in the house... but I don't think mine is connected to it if it exists. As I have a cord going to my room from the basement where the modem is at. I want to say its lightning, but WHERE did the lightning do this? Thats the whole thing. I figure its gotta be lightning, but lightning cannot simply SUCK the DSL outta the line permanently can it?

So it had to affect something, but what?
Oh, btw, I haven't slept yet, and I assume I'm now gonna have a bad dream about 5 blue cats attacking me.. heh
