hi guys,
Hope the sleeping and eating is doing you well. i've just
been to church and enjoyed immersion in that odd mix of
cultures that it is. The internet was up until i left at
9:45 am but down when i returned at 12:00pm, which is a
little uncharacteristic.
We re-powered the router and it has come back up. Justin
is poised to help out further and Marc is also enthusiastic
to get to the bottom of it - but it hasn't failed at the
right time yet. i have noticed that the quality of the internet
connection itself degrades gradually before the point when
it fails altogether - pinging google.com gives 0% dropped
packets during the morning when everything is good, and
up to about 4% dropped packets in the afternoon, just before
it fails. I wonder if it's temperature related - today has
been particularly hot and it's
the first day it's gone offline before 1 for some time.
anyway. we're on to
it over here, that's all that you need to know enjoy.
cheers -e |
