They can turn the router off and on if it's nearby, or remotely through 192.168.0.1 (or variation)Then a simple list of four commands a 5 year old could follow.
press the start button. See the run box at the bottom? Type cmd in that box and hit enter... thats C.M.D. Yes M for Monkey. Now type ipconfig SPACE /flushdns in the scary black window. That's the slash with the top leaning to the right. Is that in? Did you remember the space... no this time it was N for Night. Hit Enter. You're done.
