"I find it somewhat ironic when it comes to the issues of clean sport that there is almost an automatic leap to issues of doping and athlete cheating and virtually no discussion about the corruption that has clearly infected sports bodies, sports leagues and sports owners," said Smith.

Siobhan McLaughlin, 46, was refused the benefit after her partner John Adams died from cancer in January 2014 because the couple, who had four children and were together for 23 years, were not married or in a civil pa

So, if you're in the market for a new router and want the latest, greatest device, look for models with 802.11ax.  What does that mean to you? Well, looking at what comes after the "802.11" on a router will show you what category of standards the device falls under. Wi-Fi 5, which was the standard for nearly the last decade and likely the one your current router falls under, is 802.11ac.

Consistently slow speeds, a laggy connection or one that goes out entirely are indicators you may need to reset the router. And if you have separate modem and router devices, go ahead and reset the modem while you're at it.
