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!
