New Internet Provider

Uncategorized 1 Minute

A new internet provider landed in the neighborhood, and we watched as they strung wire up and down the streets. Two neighbors signed up just before I did, and they have been pleased with their service for several days. Mine is being installed today. The first instruction I had was to move everything three feet away from the area they need to access inside the house. I was aware of the wires in John’s office, but I never paid much attention to them. I was shocked that the service came into the house behind the biggest bookcases we’ve ever owned. I removed a yard of vinyl records, storing them under my bed.

Electricity was supplied to the modem on the other side of the room. What a mess of wires was behind the small computer desk! I crawled under the big desk to that area to make sure I could move the small desk without pulling equipment off.

  3. What a visual! You crawling around the floor and all the trips it must have taken to get the albums moved.
    Maybe you can go get a plastic tub to store them in. 😉

  6. Most of my accessories are wireless so I don’t have too many wires but my husband is old school with lots of wires behind his desk! Good luck with the new service provider.

      1. You need a 6 year old grandchild that is a wizard at this stuff! That’s what I always say I need. If I ever have to figure out my husband’s wires, I haven’t a clue what is needed and what isn’t. Maybe I could take the whole neighborhood down!

  10. Amazing how stuff happens inside your house. The plugs, the cords, the need to move things hither and yon. You did great. Hope your new connection is wonderful.
