I've been cut off

A couple of days with no internet connection so I've been feeling isolated.

Suddenly on Friday the connection dropped out. Etisalat told me to do all the usual stuff of turning everything off, switching it back on, I tried hitting the box...nothing worked.

OK, they'll send an engineer on Sunday.

This morning at 8.30 an engineer called to say he could be here in half an hour but would I check the connection first.

I checked and all the lights which should have been glowing were glowing, I switched on and the connection is back working.

According to the engineer there was a problem at Etisalat - I don't know what he meant exactly but he said they had "changed over" so I assume plenty of other people have had the same problem.
