    CORRECTION: I lost internet during the overnight. This morning, I saw no activity blue lights flashing; so not receiving power. Strange thing is; disconnecting, then re-connecting AC68W power cable did not restore its power. Then I saw that the pushbutton power switch was in the OFF position...
