According to the techie who foned me on sunday (and I was too dof
to get his number) as well as Telkom adsl helpdesk, my installation is
tomorrow.
I have a netgear wireless router thingy still in its clingwrap awaiting
unwrapping, as it has been for weeks.
I'm hoping that - because my phone jack is far away from pc, and
I run an extension cord, to get phone here by pc, this isnt going to be any kind of problem (I'm a total adsl n00b)
My Plan of Action
once the techie has come and done whatever the hell he does.
I try to connect up the wireless thingy, if I cant - I yell for a geek
buddy - who may or may not be available..
phone axess, ask if I fork out now, is this amount for a calender month from pay date, or just 'to the end of the month' - bitch at the answer if its 'to the end of the month' but say okay. Bank, money, deposit at axess, fone em and say okay, I just paid you for a month or two, check your account - now gimme a login/password - something cool like l33tsupahn00b
come home, stare at the wireless thingy if the geek's not available, and wonder how it all works.
when I'm online:
wait for the glorious moment when hundreds of things I've had queued up on DC++ for months on Iburst, without any movement at all, start downloading.
be very happy.
remember while at bank to stop all payments to iburst from here on, and to phone them to say 'hi, Im an ex customer - pretend I foned you 30 days ago, like you pretended you let me know you were going to disconnect me'
once all's rolling, look back at that iburst section, and smile, like I do when I look back at the Sentech section..
then download a few thing. then download a few other things - then repeat process until I need to fone axess to say, heres more money, gimme another 30gigs, mmm.. and remember paying Iburst basically R400 for just 3 little gigs, a couple of times..
