Home Again Home Again
Or the rest of the vacation story.
But first I am pretty technically adept. I can work my way through software and hardware problems. In fact after rolling out a new system at Random House I became the on floor person that tech would send people to for a possible quick fix. We got back last night and I hooked up my computer and turned on my airport card. Nada. I put it down to network problems. I got up this morning and still nothing but it did tell me to call Verizon (our DSL provider). Something went screwy with the password so it was reset and then I could get the ethernet to work and had access to the Internet. However our wireless router was dead in the water because I had to change all the passwords. I went online and figured out how to connect to the router so I could reset and lock the password. Which I then did and am now about to use my airport card to talk to my DSL line. Not a big deal for most of you I am sure but I am quite chuffed about it.
