My router whistles. This means that I have to turn it off. I is disappointed.I wanted (for a reason that may just be toy factor) to have the interweb connected all the time. But maybe I can hide it in the airing cupboard. I can't hear the heating, so maybe it will mask the router whistle.
The problem is, you see is that data is going through my connection so fast it whistles.

dude, if it's whistling you've got an overloaded capacitor (or possibly even powersupply). could be a design "feature" or it could mean it's a dud capacitor, but in either case, i'd ring the supplier and tell them you want a replacement.
oh, and did somebody say carp?
It only whistles when the adsl is connected. It is like a faint noise similar to that made by a dial up just before it knocks the speaker off, but higher pitched (as if it has a tiny speaker in it). It doesn't sound like a 'broken' noise. I can only hear it because I am about 6 metres away from it all night and it is an open plan flat and there is nothing between me and it at night.
Still think I should change it?
Wimp.

Not wimp.
I have very sensitive ears.

yeah, replace it. it's either dud circuitry or failing components.
