This Man, This Wireless-Network-Figurer-Outer

We now have cable TV and high-speed internet access. We also have several bright orange cables snaking across the yard. I sure hop they come back and trench those in soon.

Spent today hooking up a wireless network so the PoliteWife and I don’t have to share computers anymore. It was a long process. The LinkSys router hooked up easily, but the wireless receiver I picked up for her computer kept rebooting it. I would unplug the receiver and everything would work fine, but about 10 seconds after I plugged it back in the entire system would reboot. I finally gave up, returned it to the store and picked up a PCI-card receiver. That worked fine and the network is set.

Now in a week or so I’ll pick up a receiver for the Xbox…

    Hi. We got digital cable and internet connection this week, too. We had cable, but in the, it’s actually $5 cheaper. And no more dial-up. Yahoo!

    Let me know when you get your Xbox hooked up ’cause I’d love to waste some time playing online with the good Doctor. Right now I’m hooked on the new Rainbow 6 Lockdown.
