Schedule FiOS Router Reboots with a Pogoplug

74

There are few things in life more irritating than having your Internet go out. This is often caused by your router needing a reboot. Sadly, not all routers are created equal which complicates things a bit. At my home for example, we have FIOS Internet. My connection from my ONT to my FIOS router is through coaxial (coax cable). Why does this matter? Because if I was connected to CAT6 from my ONT, I could use the router of my choosing. Sadly a coaxial connection doesn’t easily afford me this opportunity.
