A week after recycling the power on Amtrak's wireless router in the D.C. Club Acela, I again was traveling and offline most of the day, before arriving a little early at the Amtrak station to send and receive email. This time 8 1/2 x 11 pieces of paper with the note "Sorry Internet Access is Down" were taped to the monitors in the computer room.
Just for kicks, I took out my own ethernet cable (I've learned to travel with my own) and plugged it into a wall jack (not the same one the router was plugged into). It worked.
I don't know what was wrong with the router or the other PCs. I had a train to board.
