Easily Restart Your Overburdened Router with a Christmas Light Switch

Easily Restart Your Overburdened Router with a Christmas Light SwitchThe need to restart your router regularly is an unfortunate reality, but if you don't want to pay for top-tier hardware it's likely to become a frequent task. One redditor made the task a little easier with a Christmas remote light switch:

It seems like I need to restart my router at least once a day (it's some piece of garbage that Comcast is forcing me to use). I got tired of getting up all the time to restart it so I got one of those remote switches you use for Christmas lights on 12/26. Now I can restart my crappy router from the comfort of my couch!

If you already have one, this trick won't cost you much. If you don't it's about $20 for a set of three. Some may feel it's better to just save that $20 and put it towards a better router, but no router will escape the restart problem forever. If you're frequently burdened by the need to reboot, a switch can save you a lot of trouble.

Have a crummy wireless router? Connect it to a cheap Christmas Light Remote Control so you don't have to constantly get up to restart it | Reddit
