A Nightmare in Blogland


Leaves whipped against the windows after being dragged mercilessly from their trees by the strong Autumn winds. Raindrops smacked and pattered, splattered and ran down the same windows, creating multiple miniscule sparks of reflection from the illuminated warmth in here out into the cool wet and dark on the other side of the glass.

Everywhere else outside is dark and looks still through the darkness, with only the sounds giving away the fury of the wind and rain.

NO INTERNET CONNECTION

gRRRRR!!!!! Angry smile

Over the past few weeks, my internet connection has been lousy, to say the least. I’d try to browse the web, visit blogs and reply to comments only to find a small yellow triangle appear in the bottom right-hand corner of my screen. Thinking the problem was my internet provider, I persevered until I could persevere no longer.

Actually, the final straw came, together with the answer to my problems, when I couldn’t access the internet over wi-fi through my mobilius phoneus. Yes: the problem was with my router.

I popped out to the shop, bought myself a brand-new one set it up in record time, and now I can get onto the internet and stay on!

I’ve been able to post through Live Writer as usual, although that seemed to take longer to post than it did again due to the lack of connection, but couldn’t maintain connection to do anything else. With the new router, hopefully now I can.

So, without further ado, I’m off to reply to me comments…
