Our home phone service has been working perfectly. The internet has been rock solid and several home phone calls have been received and worked perfectly, all without the Wall Phone Filter being attached. The offending item can be seen here to the left.I have been speaking with a mate, Barry from down in Melbourne who used to work for Telstra. He commented that the problem I experienced was not unusual and that type of internet filter in particular can be very touchy. Scott (the guy who put the new PC together) also believes the wall phone filter was most likely the culprit.
As the phone is now perfect, so too is the weather today. There is hardly a cloud in the sky. This photo was taken this morning on my daily bike ride. It was a stunning morning. It is expected to get to around 27 degrees this afternoon. I even managed a swim this morning, the pool was just under 24 degrees.Click on either photo for a larger view, then click on "Back" to return to this page.
The new PC works very well indeed. I saw one with similar specs for sale from Dell at well over $1500. Mine was well under $900. However the Dell PC came with a warranty and Windows 7. I have my 'own' copy of Windows 7 installed on it. The Dell PC also has a 12 month warranty. Scott will be back later (probably after Easter) to look at the old PC and try to get it working nicely again. He still strongly believes the problem is the hard disk drive in the old PC.
