Hey mylot, what is happening in your world. For me it has been a long 2 days. I called technical support due to slow internet concerns. So I got a better deal, so I thought. The woman ran a test, and it got better for a few hours. The next day, nothing, I mean nothing. I called again this morning. A technician was sent out. He actually had to move my equipment because trees had blocked where the signal was. So it worked out. But can you imagine doing surveys and because the signal is blocked or slow was disheartening to say the least. So, much for happening in my world.

My computer used to freeze up all the time. It hasn't done it in months. Knock on wood. It was so annoying; and it took 10x the amount of time to do Discussions and Notifications. Have a good weekend.

I am glad it was a simple fix. Yes, if you are trying to do surveys, bad or missing internet can ruin any good streak you have.

Thank goodness your internet network is back. By the way, is your internet network there 4G or 5G?

Yeah, being without internet is one thing, but being without power is enough to make you lose it. Been there.
