My internet battle has not changed despite all my best efforts. Last night, I ended up re-setting everything, taking away two extenders so we are now down to just one. My thought being there would be less things to go wrong.
I then bought an external aerial and three mesh extenders because I have been meaning to do that and I felt my hand was forced now.
But this morning continued to be frustrating with the internet and broadband but I discovered it was not my router’s problem, as my phone was also useless and consistently losing the EE signal too.
After lunch, I took the metaphorical bull by the horns and sat on my phone for around 20 minutes waiting for EE to answer because apparently they are 25 times in a row “UK’s best mobile network”. You can guess my response to that.
I was transferred all over their network to various different departments and I think it was the fourth lady said “oh yes, there is a problem in your area. A number of folk have complained”. Huzzah and thank you, God. Then it’s not just me. Now I feel better about a terrible signal because it’s all them.
Apparently it will be mended. And, again, you can guess my cynical response to that.
Meanwhile, I had moral support in the form of Monster.
He insisted on “helping” while I transcribed and typed up April/May 1954.
On occasions it was painful.
And he got bored.
So I dug out his basket and he sat in that instead.
Onwards, ever onwards.

Glad what you need to do concerning the routers &c is over.
I have a basket just like that. Wish I wasn’t allergic to cats so I could put one in it.

Just when I think that countries in the world might not want to have much to do with us, I have been reassured that once again, commerce has saved us. With what you shared about your EE company & its caring level of service, I know that world wide businesses have banded together to give the same high quality of customer service in each of countries: the same twenty minutes holds to talk to someone; the same ‘Oh, this is not the correct extension-let me transfer you!'( this transfer marathon can go on for another twenty minutes until you get, ‘Oh, yes! We’ve gotten calls about problems in your area! (they can find us for billing but alerts seem to be beyond them) & the cheery, ‘We’re working on the problem!’ I think Monster’s half lidded eyes sum up the situation quite accurately!
