Just a question, should I switch off my broadband router when we leave Mojacar Playa for a few months to go back to UK or keep it on?

If it’s not being used, switch it off.  It might not draw much electricity, but it’s still a draw, no point paying for something you’re not using.  It’ll reboot and reconnect quite happily when you return and switch it on

I agree with Dario. But the only time you might want to leave it on is if you have a CCTV camera working from it, like an Arlo camera (https://www.arlo.com/uk/default.aspx) which we do which shows us what's happening live at the property when we're in the UK.
