We've been having intermittent internet problems for months. It seemed to be getting worse and knowing that the wireless router was about 7 years old, we replaced it last week. That did not cure the problem. Over the weekend, it was hit or miss whether we could get on at all and often in the midst of doing something, it would fail. This morning, I called our telephone coop to see if the modem was ours or theirs and they said it was ours and that they sold new ones. We drove to the next town to get it only to be told we should have brought the old one for them to check out before making the purchase (think they could have told me that on the phone?). Back home, disconnect and back to the phone office to wait and be told it wasn't the modem. After telling them that both computers are only a few months old, the wireless router was brand new and knowing that the modem wasn't faulty wasn't helpful, they sold us a new modem/router combo. Now I need to see if Staples will take the other router back. After hooking it all up, it still didn't work. Auggghhhh! A call for service and they reset us from their end and for now, all seems ok.
In the midst of hooking it up, the pups were outside for some exercise, it took them all of 5 minutes to go get in the creek. Double Auggghhhh! They have been retrieved and hosed off. Shadow is tied up on the back deck. Ranger is locked in the utility room and Momma is not happy at either of them.
