Why didn't I just leave things alone!
I knew I was changing my interweb provider today, so I got up early to try to post before it changed. However I was too late and my old connection had been closed.
So I cobbled together a pay as you go dial up connection (which I'm posting this on now) and was just about to post here saying I probably wouldn't be posting today, when the postman arrived with my new wireless router etc.
So I installed everything and had it working fine this morning, albeit connected by wires. Should have left it!
Later I tried to connect the wireless USB adaptor to my PC. All went well I thought, but there was some problem with things not recognising my IP address or something. So I thought sod it, I'll go back to how it was ....
But now I can't get anything to work. I've spoken to people in call centres in Delhi, Bangalore and Chennai and now they reckon my installation CD is at fault as it keeps starting at 75%, so I have no chance of a clean reinstall. So now I'm stuck. And extremely pissed off with myself for not just leaving things alone.
The upshot being, they're sending a new CD (though I'm still not altogether sure that's the fault) and that will take at least 3 days.
Normal service will therefore be resumed ASAP. After the weekend I assume.
Sorry, but there's no-one more gutted about it than me.
