Journal queenofthe1ring's Journal: Internet and PotD 2

For the past several weeks I have had a good deal of trouble with my internet. At first it was something in the way the information was being routed through husbands computer to mine, which husband says should be all fixed now.

Inexplicably my internet will go out randomly. Usually this can be fixed by yanking the ethernet cord out, and replugging it. Occasionally husband has to do something using the scary terminal and magic words. He says my network card is bad. I'm not entirely convinced, but since he says there is an extra one lying around somewhere, I will reserve judgement until it has been tried out. Hopefully it will solve the problem. Until then, I have lovely bruises on my knees from where I keep my tower sideways so I can reach the cord.

  • I wouldn't have thought it. I have a clock radio that has worked since the 1970's. I expect all solid-state devices to work forever. Yet... the port broke. Others worked fine. Then two or three months later, the whole box was flaky.

    BTW - Nice pictures. :-)

    • Strangely ever since I posted about the internet problems, I haven't had any... Kind of the story of my life, you know?

      I'm glad that you're liking the pictures. Honestly I figured that no one would look at them. Many more to come...

What good is a ticket to the good life, if you can't find the entrance?

Working...
