New Modem and router..............

The good news - the equipment arrived.  The bad news - the fact that they expect an 80 year old person to self install.  If I don't have a post tomorrow you will know I wasn't successful.

3:45 p.m.  Good news! I got it hooked up.  Now let's hope it continues working.

Sometimes you can a helpful person on the phone that will walk you through. I got someone from hp the other day after going through a million menus that was very helpful.

Good luck! I wouldn't know where to begin. I'm just happy I was able to figure out On Demand so that I could see the NCAA Women's Gymnastics regional competition over the weekend.

Ugh - I don't enjoy doing things like that either - give me a screwdriver and instructions and I can put things together. Not so techno stuff! But kudos to you - you did it!

You rock !!! Especially if it meant you had to crawl on the floor to get all of that mumbo jumbo hooked up like I would have had to do. (and I'm "only" 78)
LOL

Good for you! I find that my biggest problem is getting over the fear of not trying because being afraid that I won't be able to get something to work. After I retire I plan on moving to the little village where my son lives and I then will have tech help right down the street! Such a cop out hun? LOL!!!

Glad you got it sorted - my daughter helps me if I get stuck. We have fibre optic broadband internet so very speedy. I have the 'unlimited' package. Hull is the only place in England that has it's own telephone exchange, so they heavily invested into Fibre Optic installations and I think we are the 'fastest' in the country :)

Way to go, Wanda! The digital age is keeping all of us on our toes - congratulations for getting the new modem set up.
