    This is starting to sound like my mrs has been secretly doing an IT degree on the sly, and is now attempting to catch me rifling through vast amounts of porn.

    In all seriousness though, she has had nothing in writing, and I’m going purely by what she has told me so she may have completely misunderstood. The IT guy apparently just asked for our ISP and the admin password for our router and said he needed that to add the vpn to the router to give her access to their server. However she says he’s now done it without the admin password, and there’s (so far) been no impact on internet speed/connectivity, so maybe it is was just your first paragraph and she hasn’t understood his explanation. I’m still a bit wary of anything like this that I’m not being properly informed about tbh.

    It should come back with your ISP. Anything else means you're on her company VPN

    My partner’s work has told her that they need to install a vpn on our home router as she’s working from home. Asking for the admin password so they can make changes to the router.

    My company just have a vpn installed on the computer, is this normal to have it installed on the router itself? Does that mean all the devices in our home will now be linked to this workplace vpn? What implications would that have?

    Do you have it in writing what they intend to do? It sounds more like the VPN they are using  requires a certain protocol to be enabled. This is perfectly normal and is just a tick box setting.

    To install VPN onto the router you usually need to use one not supplied by your ISP as they usually don't have options to do this easily.

    If they do want to install a VPN directly on your router you should be telling them to get fucked. It will mean all traffic connected to the router will pass through the company network. It will slow your connection massively and they can see whatever you are looking at.

    After that Celtic result last night my fear for this has been amplified.

    I never usually bet against Motherwell but I've put on Glentoran to win and Bigirimana to score to soften the blow a bit if/when the inevitable does happen.

    Feeling the same after seeing Turnbull is away so just stuck a tenner on Glentoran to qualify at 9/1. Hope to f**k it's money wasted. 

    I'm on holiday at the moment, i assume I will have access to the stream through my season ticket as per usual? Otherwise I'll need to use my IPTV although it will probably be more reliable!

    It seems to happen a lot with severe weather, I remember a few years back, I want to say we were playing Killie, and just after the game there was a torrential downpour and they had water coming through the main stand into the press area and had to do all the media outside in the stand.

    The fact that the damage this time appears to be in the Cooper is different as you'd expect it to be more weatherproof.

    You'd be amazed at how easily buildings flood with birds nests, leaves etc on the roof.
