    I occasionally get quirks like that and, much as I hate the expression, find a reboot (of the router as well as the computer) cures most.
    Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.

    Do you use the below link?

    https://myaccount.finarea.ch/114/login.aspx?custlink=

    I have that stored in my favorites (sic) rather than using the cumbersome way in via their website.

    It's baffling - I've just turned the laptop back on - and logged into my 18185 account without difficulty!
