      Yep, PropNut has it. Ran about 30m of cat5 from the room with the router in it via the loft to the computer room. Nice to have a halfway decent connection again.

      Hmm, opto-isolators, eh? That's a little way (several light-years, geddit?) beyond my understanding! My system involves a rising platform, a castle, a strange assistant and an electrical storm ;-)
