A new cable modem on the 900 mhz PC! Whewwwhooo! It's smokin'!
Ok, it's half duplex in terms of cable modem in that my provider's network is brand new and only single directional for downloads only. It uses a conventional analog modem for uploads. Actually, I was like the 4th customer. Probably 2 of those worked at the company, who knows. So, there have been issues to work through there.
Anyway, my purposes of posting this is more to let people know that I am struggling with several issues at the moment technically speaking at home.
First, the new PC developed a problem, which I won't get into here except to say it involved clearing the CMOS, and a complete reconfiguration. Yuck! :E
Not only that, been dealing with cable modem issues, setup issues, AND at least 2 versions of a virus! :{ I know I have the CIH_95 virus, and probably the CIH_196 or some such. Geeze! I had that 95 one some time ago, and thought I had completely erardicated it. Never again will I run without virus protection. I am now trying to clean up the laptop which coincidentally was either corrupted by, or corrupted, my cable modem network manager's cable modem software. Turns out I don't even require the pissy software with my NT configuration. I simply connect through the direct IP with browser supported connectivity. Simply incredible!
With all the problems this week, I am rather much seperated from all the old. It must remain that way until I am sure I am virus free. Anyway, I will get things more to my liking this weekend. But I wanted to let the people know that I communicate with every day that there is a reason I am not around when I am not around.
As if this weren't enough, it's been hell week at work too, lol. I need a break. I am beginning to feel like that guy on the TV show that premiered tonight. Cursed!
Whew!
