Even though the status lights on the actual network port (on the computer, not switch) were off.

gollark: *your password must be between 8 and 4003 characters in length, the length must be a prime number not ending in 7, and it must contain one or nine Egyptian hieroglyphs, at least one valid SQL command, the tears of a unicorn, and a proof or disproof of P = NP*
gollark: What about ~~foolish~~ places which limit password length to 0.5KB?
