    Default wireless broadband problem

    I have one of them modem things you plug into the usb port.

    I been having lots of trouble lately with getting web pages to appear, yet the little blue light is coming on which means I have Good Signal.

    It just pissing me off and I've thrown it across the room a couple of times now.

    I think I have cured the problem.
    I took out the little sim card thing in it and wiped the contacts with me finger and it seems to be working fine now.

    Wish I could afford real broadband though.

    False alarm

    Musta been a coincidence coz its still shit!

    I feel like damaging the bloody thing.

    Do you think the people I'm contracted to will give me a new one if I give it to them and tell them it don't work?

    Maybe the sim card is busted.
    I could make it busted.
    You think they would give me a new sim card free replacement if it was busted?

    Is with 3

    Price is nice and was not too bad for about a year.
    Frustrating at times, but not like the past coupla days.

    West Gate Bridge is looking good at the moment.
    Even if it is cold and raining.
    All the same in the end anyway.

    Ain't dropped nowhere 'cept I felt like droppin' it down the toilet bowl.

    But today it seems to be back to normal.

    Thats what makes me more pissed off.
    If it was busted, then its busted and I can make to get it replaced.

    But it works sometimes and sometimes don't.
    Of course when I really need it to work, that's when it will play up of course.

    Funny how you go to register a complaint and then theres a sweet pretty girl at the counter.
    Nah, its not the modem, must be me, don't worry about it.
    Why can't they have fat ugly blokes working at the counter.
    With glasses.
    And pimples.

    Network congestion,
    Your dongle is low priority over anything.
