      I built those ones with my one fair hands, they are more likely to catch fire than open a webpage.

        Still, worth a try. Leave them on overnight to see how they get on.

            Hmm, this will be slightly eye-opening. Let's see...

            2 PCs and 3 laptops = 5
            XBox One, PS3 = 2 (I think the PS3 can in a fashion)
            1 iPad and 2 Fire tablets = 3
            3 phones
            2 Kindle e-readers (just about can load a web-page)
            3 Fire TV sticks

            Some of our TVs (5) have smart functionality but I'm not sure which, and they are all connected to other devices .

            So I have 18 screens I can load a page on, but in theory maybe 20/21 different web-capable devices.

            And I don't consider myself to own a lot of kit or be materialistic. Scary, innit.
