Broadband Blues

No Internet for 3 days. We have been reduced to going around to friends to borrow broadband for 30 mins. A £30 investment for a new modem adsl router from Maplin this morning. Although at teatime it was not looking like a good investment as it would not work. Four hours of head scratching and that was just today. A hard reset to default via the pin hole reset in the back gets us on our way. 20 emails to repond to.

When broadband goes down what's the problem?
1. Firewall
2. Broadband Router
3. Your Isp
4. A Virus or malware

Part of the afternoon BT conversation led Lisa to say " There's no need to take that attitude with me!" The return phone call much more polite. I think the manager must have replayed the conversation lol

BT seem to have stopped using Scottish and Asian in the technical departments. They are equally difficult to understand.
