Routers...

They suck. Lots of suck built into a such a little package. Had to reset the modem and the router and install and uninstall and reinstall and reset and AAGGHHH!

Of course I managed to miss blogging for a day because of it. Well I'm still gonna call this Wednesday's post though. I call technical difficulties and promise to post again.

But routers, man. The hell is up with this thing? I just have a hard time understanding why it took HOURS to get this to work. I've set up many routers in my day. It was never this difficult. Put in the disc, plug in the machine like the little picture shows, let it install its software... should be easy! But it's not. But I did manage to get it done with the help of a nice online chat guy and then a frustrated call to technical support. I don't understand what I did different when the lady on the phone was instructing me, but it works now.

Now I've got a laptop that can't find it's wireless adapter to try and connect to make sure it all the features work. Well thank god for them smart phones.

I'll be back later, hopefully less frustrated.
