She's such a clever one! Gets anyhting up and running with barely a glance at instruction books. She's always patient with me too and for that I'm very grateful. <br />Got the whole thing sorted now, have mobile pre-paid broadband.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-43148645840478896002011-05-15T17:25:39.504+09:302011-05-15T17:25:39.504+09:30I think I'd be screaming! Why does it have to ...I think I'd be screaming! Why does it have to be so darn complicated? This cable, that cable, this port, that port. It's like trying to figure out a foreign language. There's nothing worse that tech problems and not knowing what to do about them. I find myself getting so frustrated at my lack of knowledge about them. I'm lucky in that L-G's son is a computer whizz and that he's been happy to help untangle the messes I've made of my computer. I always feel relief when Micke takes over and so I know my computer will be well looked after.<br /><br />Mine has extra protection now, but I think there is little thwarting of the horrid viruses and Trojans that occasionally mess it up to be achieved in the long run. One just has to live with the possibility and be vigilant.<br /><br />And I didn't know you had dial-up! You are a saint. I could not live without fast broadband. I do hope you get laptop, cables and your IP talking and playing nicely together soon.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04088355577823930786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-3079279836946461352011-05-15T15:35:26.185+09:302011-05-15T15:35:26.185+09:30EC; all good now.

It will take me forever to catch up on everyone though.<br /><br />Windsmoke; I now have a Dodo pre-paid usb installed. They seem to offer the best deals and my dial up optusnet is letting me down by refusing to connect to my lovely new laptop.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-16421293385534622882011-05-15T14:45:14.127+09:302011-05-15T14:45:14.127+09:30I have Three/Vodafone Mobile Broadband Internet US...I have Three/Vodafone Mobile Broadband Internet USB Modem with 2GB of usage for $29.00 per month on a 2 year contract, i'll be signing up again when it expires it's very reliable indeed.

Dodo have a good deal as long as you're in an area with reliable wireless. Me? I'm just outside the broadband limit so have to live with 1.5mg upload . . agonising when uploading pics.Bainohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156193098088048637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-85551699300287164332011-05-15T08:21:28.032+09:302011-05-15T08:21:28.032+09:30Soooo frustrating.
