Usually in a situation like this, my wife is the last second bidder, and she emphatically tells me what is going on, and makes sure that there are no interruptions until the bidding is over. If you had a similar agreement and she still did what she did, then her actions are unforgivable. But remember, there's no fury like a woman scorned. Hopefully, she'll check with you or whoever else that maybe online before resetting the modem.
