Update...
Found out since getting home that my brother (who lives here all year) is having a wireless router for Christmas so he can get the net on his own PC and not just the home desktop (which I've been intermittently serving from over the last week as well).
So as well as that, I'll obviously be able to connect my laptop through the router to serve full-time again as soon as it's set up, which amid Christmas parties and random drunkenness will probably be about the middle of next week. Back sooner than I thought!
Merry Christmas everyone
