Woe!

After one glorious, heady evening of wireless internet, my connections are all borked. I just spent an hour and a half on the phone with Sympatico's tech support, and they got my regular connection up and running again. I am displeased.

I have the 1-800 number for the company that made my router (LinkSys, which the guy told me was good, but perhaps he lied in order to make his sale), and as soon as I've recovered from the last conversation with customer service, I'll be calling them to figure out what the hell is wrong with my router.

I tried the signal right in the living room (right before everything went to hell), and even then nothing loaded, so something must have gone horribly wrong with the wireless connection overnight. Why would it work last night and not this morning? God only knows.

Now I have to go about unpacking and setting up bookcases and CD racks and towel racks. I wish I hadn't had to spend all morning on this nonsense. :P

Unplug it (from the power, not the modem) for a few seconds (ten, if you're feeling anal; two or three is usually sufficient) and plug it back in. Watch all the little lights come back on, and you should be good to go.
