-====== May 4, 2011 ====== 
-Kathy emailed a couple of days ago to say that when she got back from vacation, the wifi was down. I (Gabe) went by this morning. The computer had been plugged directly into the modem. When I plugged the routers back in, it seemed to work for a little while, and then stopped. It seemed like maybe a DNS problem, so I added static DNS servers to both Kathy'​s router (192.168.99.1,​ plugged into the modem, wifi disabled), and the Wireless Toronto one (192.168.1.1). That seemed to make everything work. 
  
-I didn't set openVPN up correctly when I first configured the router. It's now working. 
- 
-Also: the DHCP server on Kathy'​s router seems flaky. So I gave the WT router a static IP address on the WAN side. I maybe should have done the same for the PC that's connected to that router.

-(Jon suggested that upgrading the Linksys firmware on Kathy'​s router might fix the DHCP flakiness. That'd be a good thing to do next time someone'​s on-site.)
