our internet connection stuff is a bunch of junk. 4 port router, we're using two on hardwire, and two on wireless. we were lucky last year and got them all working at the same time, for about 1 minute, then it all stopped, and now it only works for two computers total if it wants to, sometimes it doesn't work at all, and sometimes it'll only work if all the computers are off with just one on, which is what I'm doing right now. To use the internet on this comp, i have to run downstairs, turn off my laptop, turn of my dad's laptop, run back up the comp room and shut off the other desktop, and run over to this one, restart it like 5 times, then i can connect. it's bloody annoying! Gamer is like an expert at networking, and my dad is such a bum and won't hire him, and Gamer is even offering to do it for free! I would take it, even if the bum didn't know what he was doing, at least have a go. Right?
