Hal's Guide to Network Troubleshooting

[prillalar]

I've seen so many posts about networking problems on my flist in the last few days. I administer the networks both at work and at home, so I thought I would share my never-fail troubleshooting process.

1. Make sure everything is plugged in.

2. Turn everything off and on again, in varying orders.

3. Human sacrifice.

And that's all you need to know!

You should specify that it helps if you sacrifice the idiot who made the computer not work in the first place.

Actually, I don't think it does. It's better if it's an un-involved third party.
