So I have only had internet on and off for the past few days, including the weekend. I bitched and moaned, and whined, and grumbled. Nothing helped. Nothing! If the internet goes screwy, it usually affects our big computer, because that’s got Norton AntiVirus or whatever, which fireballs and firewalls the connection at random. But it was just my remote laptop suffering. Why? O, why? Was it because we removed our IKEA computer table and replaced it with the huge dining table we don’t need, thereby pulling and yanking on cords? Don’t think so, because the connection was still available to the big computer. Was it because I rearranged my scale collection and ended by displaying the router nicely on my giant butcher’s scales? Hmmm, that could be it. The metal scales were interfering with the signal … Mr. T! Check the signal! Engage the deflecting ion shields!
Not the fault of the metal scales. Mr. T took great delight in informing me that when moving the router I pulled out the aerial. Which I did not discover, over a 4-day period. Yes. Thank you! It may scare you to know that normally I am considered quite technologically advanced! I know! It’s mind boggling!
