Okay, here's the story:
Our satellite Internet connection has been progessively worse over the past 10 months.
Unfortunately, satellite Internet is generally NOT reliable.
It's the only high speed available to us. Don't ask why. Don't convince me to upgrade. Please don't even talk about it. I don't want to hear it.
Anyway, the transmission chip in the satellite's reciever arm is broken and needs replacing. I am lucky to be online but it took me 12 minutes to load up NamePros and get to this "Post Thread" page because TCP and Web accelerations were both inactive.
Repair guy is calling on Tuesday, maybe Monday if we're lucky; he'll be coming out maybe Wednesday or Friday at latest.
I could be gone for a week.
PolurNet: Yes I know I have that $7 bill due :p I can barely access NON-ssl sites, so https:// is out of the question (for payment) :td: - until this next week or the Internet is running again.
Don't expect anything from me much this week; I may be on but it will be very sparratic.
Thanks,
