Worse than the glass of wine - is that a BT hub I see? Oh dear. I hope you don't try to use that wirelessly; it's one of the worst products I had the misfortune to encounter.
TBF: Yup, it is a BT Hub and connected with lead. But wireless aok - get perfect reception on wireless in the communal lounge, lots of brick walls away! Under two miles from exchange, so no probs! Getting 8meg on lead connection.
I'm impressed WfW. My photo was taken early evening hence the tea (I forgot to move the mug) rather than a glass. I seldom have anything after I've eaten these days, so it's a Tio Pepe during preparation.
Keep up the good work please. When do you get your new car?
I got that black BT home hub thing. It was OK until I enabled BTFon, and then it became useless. Chiselling messages on a slate and sending them via TNT would have been quicker and more reliable. I junked it and went back to the old white one and it's miles better. Miles better = 4m away through two wooden doors, XP consistently reports "Low" or "Very Low" signal, and the iPhone can't pick it up unless I am sitting next to it.

Having watched The Social Network and what Mark Zuckerberg could program in one night totally drunk, I do not begrudge you that glass of wine !
ReplyDeleteVoyager: That was the first glass of a new bottle - and the rest soon followed. Trust your not begrudging still holds good!
