Experiencing Technical Difficulties

S.O. has an Apple, but I am still a PC person. When he switched to his Apple, we couldn't get the wireless to work in the home office. Bought Airport and then Airport Extreme, but nothing would get a wireless connection here in the basement home office.

So we bought a wireless router and he got hooked up with the router people's tech support and all was well. Until he upgraded to Leopard.

Wireless Router didn't work. Talked endless hours to Apple on the phone and they finally threw up their collective hands.

Last night we called the router people. They tried to install some software on the router. Guess what? It wouldn't install. After about an hour and a half the call was dropped, and no one ever called back, and I finally got things going far enough to get the "Unable to install" message and we tried it on S.O.'s computer and we tried it with the router company on my computer and we tried it 7 ways from Sunday and it still wouldn't install.

So we are still wired, with a cable running across the floor that someone will eventually trip on and make a big electronic mess.

One would think that this problem would not require the finest minds of this generation. One would think a solution might be available. One would be wrong.

Doing a lot of sucking it up in the bowels of the home office. Grrrr.


Grrrrapeshot.
