  It's so much easier to leave it on all the time though.

I've just installed a Sky broadband service for someone. The manual for the Sagem router states the advantage of the power switch - in that the item can be switched off when not in use to reduce the carbon footprint.

If the person I've just installed the modem did that and lost the connection or had something else go wrong,. I'd dump a whole lot of carbon into the atmosphere just going over to their place to fix it.

So on it stays ...
