Hi all,
I'd rather not get into the details of why at this hour, but John has
stopped providing us with free internet service.. Pursuant to a discussion
he came downstairs to have with me tonight when I randomly stopped by just
to check on the building at like 11:30pm.
The RJ45 plug at the end of the Cat5 cable leading upstairs to John's
internet router has been clipped - please do not attempt to reattach it.
I'm afraid we must wait on the Comcast Maryanna ordered to get service.
Maryanna, what is the eta there?
Comcast is evil, yes, but we can cancel anytime while we settle on our
provider of choice. (Sonic.net's 2-week delay in even getting a tech onsite
to provision DSL sort of makes that ISP like not the best choice and the
reason really we are in this pickle.)
Everyone, I realize this sucks obviously but I would respectfully ask that
we not give John a hard time about this. He is not obligated to give us
free internet.. It's really not his problem, and he is worried about the
security of his home network.
I know Jeremy (sudo) talked to him about him sharing his 'guest' wifi
network instead. Knowing John, I will simply say my advice is against
pursuing this option.. let it go, and lets just get our own stuff asap -
Best,
David
