Tech guys - who needs 'em!
Well, certainly not the lady that I work with because she told me last week that she has got her Internet broadband connection working, with no help from the tech guys.

She told me that she got so fed up with not getting what she was paying for that she tried (one more time) to establish the connection herself.

From what she described, she was able to call up a configuration screen (one of two or three) that had opened and immediately closed on previous occasions, this time she was able to keep it open and fill in the info this screen was asking for. After some more fiddling around (and some praying) she managed to obtain and maintain a wireless connection to her modem from her main (Dell) PC.

Suffice to say, she is extremely happy with her accomplishment especially as she has had no help whatsoever.

I also believe that since she was able to connect her Blackberry to her modem this gave her the confidence to try connecting the PC herself.

All's well that ends well.

PS. Her son's laptop is now also connected.
