Heh, I'm just a couple of weeks new to wireless also. Still amazed that
Sadie's computer (she was driving me crazy with all her AOL crap on my
computer) can operate at the other end of the house with no wires, just
this little antenna sitting on my PC. And all the while someone is
using the same line to talk on the tele. For icing on the cake we save
about 30.00 a month.

WTF is dial up? ;-)

Actually, I do have one computer left that has a PCI slot in it and a
V-everything, data, fax, voice, video enabled modem in it that is used for
dial in on a Win machine in my bedroom that I use for fast back fax or file
server for friends and sometime use myself to access sumpin I got in my
publically accessable folder. Mostly all the damn machine does is sit there
and answer the telephone for me. I went broadband and cable seems like
three or maybe four years ago at a time when RR swore and bedamned that I
could only use one computer and one TV on the connection I have and double
bedamned me to ever get a connection going with Linux or BSD with their
DHCP servers, but after arguing and fighting with RR's main technician in
this area he relented and allowed me to do a user installed connection and
sent a technician out and had him just deliver the cable modem to me and
allowed him to have me sign off on the work order.

Technician told me he wanted, if it was OK with me to hang around and see if
the system came up and connected OK. Since I'd already configured the
computer, I told him sure, pull up a chair. I hooked up and powered up and
he watched in literal amazement as the Debian system I was using spewed out
it's boot sequence showing something like the following

It was the first time he had ever seen a *nix or Linux machine come
alive. ;-)

I'm hard wired into the apartment to cable modem and then to a router and
then everything else is wireless and I keep a spare USB wireless nic for
testing machines I'm working on.

By going out and buying some pretty high quality splitters for my cable
input, I get excellent TV reception on either screen of this dual headed
monster that serves as typewriter/home entertainment
center/movies/music/VCR/feeds from live web cams all over the world, plus
one small portable TV that gets moved around from room to room plus 19 inch
TV out monitor on the bed room computer. All of them respond to remote IR
controls. Real couch tater me. ;-)

And my landlord pays my 125 channel cable bill and my Inet only costs me
$46.90 per month. ;-)

Actually, an 83 year old lady who lives around back turned me on to the home
lan wireless. I saw her one day with her notebook out in the courtyard
pecking away while her laundry was doing. She was online by way of her
wireless nic to her router all the way around back side of the complex.

Sadly as outback as we are here in Temple Town, we have only one wireless
hotspot in town and it's out on the loop at Starbucks. Never been to a
Starbucks, but that might be incentive for me to visit if I come up with a
notebook or something one of these days to take out and play with.
Daughter has been telling me she is going to send me one or deliver it
soon's they get back to Tejas from Portland.

But I luv my cable. I consistently and regularly DL CD and DVD .iso files
ranging from 700 meg to 5 gig in 20 min for the 700 meg size to one 4 gig
that I did in about three hours or so. I didn't time it since I was going
on and doing something else at the time. ;-)

Long way at breakneck speed for me having come from 300, 600 and 900 baud
connections by long distance telephone back in late 80's by way of CIS or
GEnie. Pre windows with DOS 3.2 CLI and I've still gots a ProComm 2.3,
5.25 in floppy packed away sum place along with my first registered, hand
signed, thank you for registering, by Phil Katz PKZIP.

And it's always nice to see the first redhead I ever sung to over the
Internet. ;-)

Ooooooooooooops ;-)

Better kick in step 10 and make a prompt admission and correction. That
should have read:

"Actually, I do have one computer left that has an ISA slot in it..."

Alzheimer's and Acronyms just don't seem to mix too well.

I rarely ever talk eye ball to eye ball with computer gurus and I don't even
know how to pronounce most of the TLA and FLA terminology so consequently I
often get some blank stares from puter technicians and sales persons in
puter stores when I go looking for something for one of my wild projects. I
went looking for a SCSI board once and the salesman tole me "I sorry
Charlie, but we don't have no soapy surf boards here. Maybe try the sports
section at Wal-Mart."

Not sure if this is relevant or not...

We were experiencing increasingly-often disconnects on our cable
connection. We determined through a process of elimination that the
router was not at fault, and decided that it was a problem with the
cable modem that we lease -- rebooting the modem would restore the
connection. Sometimes it would last several days, sometimes only hours
or minutes. But rebooting the modem always fixed it.

We contacted the cable/ISP tech people, and they said that it probably
wasn't the modem, but rather a weak/bad/dirty feed to the modem itself.
They came out and strung new cable from the pole to the junction box at
the trailer, and all has been hunky-dory ever since.

If you've got DSL, this might or might not apply. Just a thought.

I went through about a six month period having the same problem everytime it
rained heavily. After numerous go arounds with RR, and them finally
becoming exasperated with coming out here and checking everything from wall
to monitor and never finding anything they could blame on
consumer/user/operator etc. and since the only other hook up on this feed
I've got broadband cable wise is a U-Haul dealer right down the road from
me who I talked with about the situation who has a high dollar business
account with them and found out he lost Internet every time I was going
out. When it got to the point where they weren't the "Only Phone Company"
in town and he threatened to move his business elsewhere, they came out and
grudgingly admitted there was about a half mile stretch of cable with badly
cracked insulation and then replaced it and refunded he and I both about a
month and half of service for a badly intermittent wet weather period. Nary
a bobble in service since then.

Sounds like the problems we were having with our cable TV -- eventually they
came out and strung a new cable to replace the one that was maybe by then 10
years old. My only problem now is the RG58U (I think -- it *was* a long
time ago) I strung all over the house when it was built 30 years ago. It's
clear it's starting to fail and never was meant for whatever frequencies the
digital channels are muxed on anyway. I don't really want to figure out
how to restring it in existing walls and I just see trying to use the old
cable to pull a new one through and it getting stuck.

Our DSL has been rock-solid for, what, a year now? Had to reboot a few
times when it was new, but I think the telco must have repaired something
because I haven't had to do anything since (except once when the router got
hungup in some weird state.)

Hey! I fabricated a whole bunch of wiring harnesses and strung a lot of RG58
in building a lot of prototype equipment vans that was shipped out all over
the world when I worked at the HEX at Mon. in N. J. ;-)

Then wound up working in a couple of them in some ungodly places like
Pakistan and other unmentionables. From that experience I learned to always
be meticulous with my soldering and wiring technique.

I'm using the stiffer RG59 on what stuff I've got hard wired here in the
apartment. Them frequencies don't tolerate sharp bends or bad connections.
Still have PTSD and nightmares about BNC connectors.;-)

Been back to the Hexagon lately? ;-)

Nope, but rumor has it I'm supposed to be somewhere close to there sometime
soon.
Rumor did have it as being sometime in October, but seeing as October is
almost over and their ain't even a meeting agenda yet I doubt it'll happen
that soon. I was even asked if I wanted to make a speech or something but I
allowed as how only if they gave me a lotta time to prepare.

But I have been to Seattle and L.A. but you missed all that.

Its that mode of communication that is slightly faster than leaving a

I've never even seen a linux system. Given the Mythos surrounding them,
I envision gothically beautiful jewel encrusted boxes with magic ponies

Am I close?

Actually, since I didn't understand a word of what you wrote above, I
mentally just wandered off and this is what I came up with. Rigorous

How (besides zonealarm pro....if that even helps) can I protect my

I got DSL for just shy of $30, and I don't have cable. So I get off more
cheaply, but I have no good movies to watch. Thank god for DVDs.

So your saying that an 83 year old woman is waaayyy ahead of me

I was going to not get a connection in my apartment, and *only* go to a
coffee house a few times a week to catch up on email and junk....but who
am I kidding? Mainly I needed a laptop because this damned apartment is
too small for a hulking machine with a monitor without visually taking
over the space. Of course, my computer was so old, that this fairly old
used laptop I have actually blows it away. I think if I actually got
myself a new fangled laptop (maybe even a MAC <gasp> ) I'd probably go
into future shock.

First?

You been cheating on me?

But since I've made some changes around here (heh), I'd be glad to be

had that honor?).

I remember that. That was one of my all time favorite birthday greetings

Let's see if I can get these answers in the right sequence ;-)

Yes

No

No

But...

My ISP made me stop singing on the Internet. Something to do with
fundamental frequency of my voice and some harmonic that seemed to be
about 80^nth or something like that was causing problems with the RR
home page here at hot.rr, or I guess for that matter any RoadRunner High
~ Speed home page. They has thet lil chaparral bird up in the left corner
that follows the cursor around and goes "Beep-Beep"

What was happening, was every time I tried singing, his eyes crossed and
he would start going like this...

http://home.hot.rr.com/olgnuby/ohoh.wav

I dunno how they figured out it was me unless they put some sort of
carnivore like a coyote or jackal on my account and just sat there
waiting for me to come zooming by. ;-)

My condolences on the loss of Finn. I recall the picture I had seen of
you and him. I remember at the time I seen it I thought of coming out
across a stretch of desert like area in New Mexico one morning shortly
after sunrise. No other traffic and forty miles from nowhere either
direction and a huge, magnificent silver fox colored dog, I'm sure it
wasn't a wolf, having seen a few, came across the road about twenty five
yards in front of me. It had a tumble weed about a foot and a half in
diameter clamped in it's mouth. Struck me as so strange I shouldered and
looked back and watched it, thinking it may have got tangled in it or
something, but as soon and it got off the right of way, it stopped and
put it down for a minute, got another tooth hold on the root stem and
headed on off across the desert. I've often though of that and wondered
what in the hell a dog like that was doing out in the middle of nowhere,
where in the hell it was carrying a tumble weed from and to and why? ;-)

Ah well, looks like an episode on L&A SVU I ain't seen afore so since I
got a full belly I gonna shut down and practice up on my TV watching a
bit before bed. ;-)

Funny thing. You evoked perfectly one aspect of Finn's personality. If
he hadn't been raised here in the city, I think he would have maybe
played his role in a scene very much like the one you describe (except I
probably would have been out there somewhere....he liked adventures and
carrying around odd things for no reason, but he was, at heart, a big
old Mamma's Boy). Sometimes when he and I were just playing in the park,
he'd find a sooper special somethingorother to carry around. Most of the
time it was some enormous hunk of tree trunk. A couple of times he found
a 20' tree limb that had broken off. He wasn't doing anything with it
particularly, just taking it from one place to another, setting it down,
resting a moment, fixing a new grip on his prize and wandering around
with it. I suspect part of the fun was just being admired from a
distance with such a special find. The rest of what his purpose was will
always be a bit of a mystery. His own private thing. I like it that way.

So you probably played a part in that dog's adventure that day. Probably
not a coincidence that he put it down nearby where you were.....so you

Practice makes perfect. Between missing all those damned versions of L&O
and desperately wanting to see South Park again, I need to get cable
already. Sheesh.

Love SP, but I don't have cable. Just got the first season on DVD. Its a
great mood-elevator for the election season. Parker and Stone are Gods!

They were just on some late night talk show last night. I'm trying to
figure out which one I have a bigger crush on. I'm pretty sure its the
goofy looking curly haired guy.

They cracked me up!!!

Well, they are kind of goofy lookin', but I love them both. My friend has
announced that she wants to have Trey Parker's (the blond one) baby. Did you
know he was raised Mormon? Of course Mormon kids have two choices: to be a
sick and twisted weirdo like Trey Parker or a little robot clone. Glad he
took the right path :-)

Like one of your hero's )O'Reilly) you probably have your little
pinkies wrapped around it when you're on the phone or posting here.

It is kinda neat. The only prob I have with mine is that I have to uplug
the hub once in a while to reset it. Dunno why it seems to drop the
connection every once in a while although all the diagnostic tools tell me
things are fine.

Cheers,
