With temperatures nearly topping 30 degrees across the UK this week, nobody wants to be stuck inside staring at a computer screen all day. However, making the most of the spring sunshine may not be an option for some hardworking folk, whose shift patterns don't allow them to enjoy the sunshine.
And while the internet breaking down when you're working from home on a glorious day may seem like a terrible excuse to get the day off and head to the beach, it's a reality that some Britons may well face. This is because technology infamously doesn't handle heat well, and many gadgets will shut themselves down when their cores reach a certain temperature to prevent permanent damage.
Others have in-built fans to help cool vital electronics down substantially, but your Wi-Fi router unfortunately does not. And an overheating home hub may leave you internet-less until the Virgin or Sky repairman can come and fit a replacement.
