nephirWe bought a new cable modem/router/thingie to replace the old one which continually dropped the connection, usually when you were in the middle of doing something important this past week and got it set up this weekend.
It's been fabulous -- no dropped internet, always on, secure.
Get home from work tonight and there are two blinking red lights. Spousal Unit called the cable company and they have no idea of what it means.
They'll be back on Thursday to test the lines (yet again). We'd like them to run new ones from the pole to the house, but they are resistant. For the freakin' amount we pay monthly, they should kiss my pasty arse and run a new line.
We will see what happens.
So, you are prolly asking, if the cable modem/router/thingie is out, how is she posting? Eveyone in my neighborhood (all twelve houses total) has internet -- most have wireless. Some don't have a secure signal, so I am 'borrowing' it for the moment.
Still... signal is weak and can drop at any time, so no dedicated surfing for me.
Oh well....I guess I can catch up on my reading or writing or something.
Oh and a poll...cause all the cool people are doing them......
