I spent way, waay too much time on the cell phone today with tech support. We were trying to set up the wireless router (which, by the way, was working fine before we called). I spent so much time that the cell phone ran out of juice.

Not going to go into details - it was a comedy of errors - but eventually things got resolved. If only I'd had [livejournal.com profile] semy_of_pearls' work number...

Things now work. The proof? I'm typing this on our network, in the kitchen.
On the brand new laptop!

Yeah, I like those snarky error messages.

You know, ones like "Press any key to continue or any other key to quit."

Or: "Bad or missing mouse. Spank the cat? (Y/N)"


Srsly.... Lemme guess... you had to replicate/clone the MAC address while in 'Bridged mode' for the router, right?
