So, for weeks my scant three-year-old laptop has challenged me (above and beyond security settings that block many WordPress cookies) – or so I thought. Turns out I have a defective router that’s been disrupting not only the phones, cells but the WiFi. …annnd tech support can’t swap it out for two more days.
*Sigh* At least today I can enjoy a sense of humor about it all.
I need a walk!

If it’s any consolation, my 5.5-year-old laptop is worse.

It is encouraging as I see all you do with it.

Good for you for identifying the problem. I know enough about computers to be dangerous. I am pretty good at troubleshooting and try to resolve the problems myself. I have 3 computers so if one acts up, I have a backup.

Thank you, Eugenia. I admire your tenacity and appreciate you taking the time to comment <3. I too have a backup laptop (a painfully slow dinosaur) and an external hard drive. Living with two IT guys seemed like a blessing at the time, but after we moved and my husband and I separated I was annoyingly ignorant – talk about falling into the deep end of the pool! I've learned since. Thanks to God for long-suffering Quinn and Team Viewer. When all else fails, he copies my data files on his mainframe once a week or so 😉 Peace!

Then lucky you! I just found that out yesterday because I was working on an article (for work) and had to do research on communication tools for teams.

It would take me a while to work my way to a defective router. There are so many more common problems. Kudos to you for finding that.

Yeah, Jacqui – while Quinn was out of town it took me forever to narrow it down and then as a last resort calling my IS Provider. Who knew?! Arrrgh! Film at 11… 😀

I know just enough about computers to get me in trouble and fortunately I’m patient enough to find a way out of trouble. Having said that, computer technology drives me crazy while at the same time it gives me great comfort. My router was an issue this morning.
