Around 5pm yesterday afternoon I was in the 'office' and noticed the modem/router was all working fine, we had the voip up and connected and the dial tone had switched to the familiar single tone of a successful connection with MyNetFone.Take a few seconds and compare this photo with the one in yesterday's post.
The internet connection remained rock solid overnight and everything seems fine this morning.
I guess either Telstra did a reset somewhere on our line and one by one the services gradually resumed. Or it is just down to the vagaries of connecting to the internet.
(Late Update) After asking around this morning it appears it was a problem with the phone service for our section of the estate and everyone lost dial tone, phone connection and internet. Everyone is back online now though.
A couple of less than enticing AFL games were on TV yesterday but both turned out to be exciting. This made for a more pleasant Saturday afternoon.
I have previously described the weather as glorious. Today is even better than glorious. We are expecting a top of 23 degrees but it will feel much warmer out of the sun sitting quietly in the back corner.
I had a stroll for a couple of kilometres this morning enjoying the lakes, the parks and the weather. I am again back on my bike tomorrow morning. Later tomorrow I am off to help set up a home network and install a network printer. He has three computers, an older Vista Laptop, and new Windows 7 laptop and an old PC running XP. The two laptops should be easy, the older PC running XP will be a bit more of a challenge.
Trish and I along with another couple are off to a 'farewell' for a retiring Sunshine Coast Councillor this evening. We are going along as representatives of the Bellvista Community Association. The venue is known to have great food so we are both looking forward to the evening very much.
