I don't know shit about the internet box

Discussion in 'General' started by Gorilla George, Jun 16, 2019.

  1. Ok, WTF.

    The cable company JUST said the modem is fucked up. They tried to ping it and reboot it, but it was showing offline on their end...even though it was lit up and online on my end. So they said it needed to be swapped.

    I opened up the laptop to do the hotspot thing with the phone. But by the time I got the laptop opened and unlocked, I forgot what I was opening it for, so I just started playing on the internet. I just now realized ive been playing on the internet for 15min, with no problems.

    So I woke up Stevie and Netflix is working now also. :confused:

    None of my lights or anything changed, and i didn't touch anything, but suddenly the internet is working again.

    Catastrophe averted. :D

    Ok...so, crisis was diverted, but, the risk is still there unless you do something about it.

    This could, no, scratch that...this would be the first time that a car was purchased for the purpose of being a backup in the event it rains and the internet goes out.

    You’re gonna need a little hot rod that goes good in the rain. I’m thinking an Audi RS3.

    I know it should have been averted. Shithouse polio impacted my proofreading ability. Not the first and won’t be the last.

  16. If it doesn’t involve formation influxes, hydraulics, wheels, or make me laugh, I neither want to, nor am paid to give shit about it. :D
