Can someone explain this one to me?

[Adam Jensen]

I was borrowing my parent's speakers until I bought a pair of my own. Having no need of their speakers, I plugged them back into their computer. When I did so, my internet went down and it took me a good 10-20 minutes to get it back up.

I'm not a dumbass, I didn't unplug anything or try to stick the speaker jack into the ethernet cable jack, nor did I touch the modem or the wireless router.

So what the hell happened? Just a random fluke?

sounds like a random fluke. if it can be repeated it would not be :P

Is your internet wireless? Did the internet go off on all computers on the connection or just yours? It was probably random but who knows.... :P

Might just have been a coincident that it went down at that exact moment, or you could have accidentaly touched one of the wires so something went wrong. I think the first option is the most likely one though.

Coincidence mate.
