I've been accessing the wikis a lot the past weeks, so I can rekindle my memory in relation to early stages of the game and make the comics more accurate. The thing is, I stumbled in the most curious phenomenon: every time I spend too much time, or open more than one tab of the wikis, my internet connection simply stops working. It doesn't goes down - the wi-fi symbol is there, unchanged. However, I can't access anything, Skype stops working, any streaming software stops working. Most of the times, closing the wiki and waiting a few minutes restores the internet to normal. Sometimes, I have to close everything and repair the connection.

At least twice, the repair option said that protocols were missing, and that's why the internet was down. Other times, it doesn't find anything wrong.

Has soemone ever experienced this problem when seaching in the wikis? Or am I being stalked by one of the Masters and should be worried?

If you use Firefox then there you go. If not you may have a different problem. Perhaps the Masters have decided to start hacking those who oppose them, rather then just brutally murdering them.

Hmmm, interesting. I do use firefox. I think it's weird that it also affects skype, instead of just firefox, but eh. Computer science is just an advanced form of shamanism, after all.

I also use Firefox and look up things on the wiki a lot, but never experienced anything like what you describe.
