The internetman never came to fix our connection. The signal came by itself at the end of the last week. It means, our modem was not broken. It was a general problem but they never told us that. As I told you my mom made a contract with another company and the new "service" came in a box the same day we had back the signal from the other company. The man with the box told my grandma... "Sign here and enjoy your internet!" ???? The box was on the desk for almost a week... waiting for my mom to install it... And finally she did it yesterday!!
It says... "Wireless kit"...
Wireless????
Wireless????
As you know my mom knows ZERO about all those things. But she got the courage and started following all the instructions... One cable here, another there, insert the CD, follow the steps... something went wrong... out the CD. In the CD.... some HBO words... out the CD! Finally the screen said "Congratulations!". Took away the cables... no signal... put again the cables, there it went the CD again.... more HBO words.... until she got it! Ufff!
She turn off everything and we went to have lunch. Then we came back, she turn on the laptop and it did not work. Off.... on.... off.... on.... nothing. I saw her and noticed she wanted to cry... I came close to her... she gave it another try and... Ta-Daaaa!
My mom likes the new internet. It is supposed to be the same velocity as the other but this works faster! Lets hope everything goes well from now on!

Hi Lorenza!
We are happy to hear that you got your new internet service, and that it is faster to.
There is nothing like fast internet, the faster the better we always say.
Your Mommy is very very smart.

Yahoo, I hope that it works real good for you and your Mom Lorenza.

Internet problems are such a nuisance. Good on your mum for sticking with it!
Yipee Weeeeee!
Good job for your mom! Figuring those things can be tough but it sure feels great when all is fixed and working.
Congratulations on the new connection. That means more photos from you! Weeeeeee
Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

I'm so glad your internet is fixed!
I almost WENT to the Yankee parade. My boyfriend is a big Yankee fan and wanted to go, so we almost went, but I wasn't feeling so well and didn't want to wait in the crowd for so many hours. It was cold out, too!
On isn't technology fun? BOL! Hope your internets work well from now on, though!
Big kisses,
Bajas
Well done Lorenza and mom - we only like the internet when it works!
We feel like crying when it doesn't
- we are glad it is up and running and will keep basset paws and human fingers crossed over here in Scotland for you.
How cool that the company have a Spokesdog!
love

Don't worry, your mom will make that internet work. She is determined.

Happy new internet, so pleased its going great now, John always says when you speak on the phone to sort things out, they think we are all ****"!!! technicians. He says its like flat pack furniture not quite as easy as they say.
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaa for your mom! Our mom says those techie things are not easy and are soooooo frustrating and they can give you such a hard time!
We're so happy everything turned out just fine for you and your mom! You're a good helper, Lorenza!
Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch
Good evening lorenza
Congratulations on the birthday though it slowed.
お誕生日、おめでとうございます。
It can eat a wonderful cake momentarily.
Cheerleader's lorenza is very lovely.
The setting of wireless of the new Internet seems to be difficult.
However, if the setting ends, the happy Internet can be seen at high speed.
A wonderful weekend with Internet freedom.
:)

All those internet and computer things are a big pain. They have caused lots of HBO words in our house too Lorenza. I'm glad that your mom finally got it to work so that you can be connected.
Your friend,
Niamh
Congrats to your mom. I need to set up wireless in my house today. I hope it doesn't cause any HBO words!
That is great.. super fast internet... all good things come to those who wait? What did you get for waiting to blog Lorenza?

Lorenza Tell MOM we are VERY PROUD of her!!! Great job. My mom knows Minus Zero about technical stuff. But she too tries...it might take longer but at least our Moms are willing to try so that we stay connected. We love seeing your work space and where you sit to help mom with the Blog. We hope that nast Ida doesn't come your way. If so head for the covers..I'll be thinking of you.
Madi and Mom
Hi Lorenza,
I am proud of your mom for getting the internet connected. My mom wants to get wireless when she has to get a new computer. I hope it will be a laptop, so we can do my blogging outside! BOL
Waggles,
Bijou
Your mom had such patience and perseverance with that internet installation. Here's hoping it works really well and that way we won't have any interruptions in Lorenza time on our blog reading.
Happy Sunday, the OP Pack
Congratulations to your mom. She managed to solve that wireless riddle. I know what you mean about the ???wireLESS???? thingy. I wish you could have seen behind mom's desktop computer BEFORE I caused her to tie up the wires. We won't go into those nasty details, Okay.
MY Yapstop is wireless!!! She did learn from that other experience. hehehe
You give your mom some extra licks for a job well done.
Good job there... hope the new service will withstand hurricanes and all... no more down time else everyone gonna miss Lorenza.
I like your ridiculous story... that's really ridiculous but all out of love :)
Licks, hero
We recognize things in those pictures. Baskets of loads of toys. Miles of loads of wires. What's missing is the moma's bottom sticking out from underneath the desk! Hahaha! If only we could use those flashy boxes the way they do! The pictures we'd get! (But then again, maybe your moma didn't need to crawl underneath that desk.) The good news? She was SUCCESSFUL!
And ... a little late ... Hooray for the Yankees!
Love
Jake and Fergs xxoo
The most impawtant thing is.....
LORENZA
is
BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!
YEAH!!!!!
Hugs, Tessa
Sounds like you're the lucky charm, Lorenza -- stay close to the computer so that the Internet keeps working!
Lorenza, we had faith all along that you were going to fix the internet! And you did! You are supergirldog!

We like the doggy internet service. Hope it will be better for you. Hurray for the Yankees! Although if the Braves were playing we'd before them since we live near Atlanta.

Dewey Dewster here....
Wait wait... before I forget, I want to say that your mum did an excellent job for setting up the wireless internet (although it doesn't look wireless...).
Second of all, you are watching 2 TVs and I pressume surfing the internet at the same time? Man, you sure can multi-task!
Love,

Mom's had her share of 'puter problems. Glad yours has been solved. Yea for your mom! And exellent of you to cheer her on.

Hi Lorenza
My mom got faster internet at home. But it's not fast enough. I hate computer problems.
Good thing your mom kept trying. \
Deefor
p.s. Watching the Yankees win once (sob) was enough for me.
Congrats on your new internet! Your mom did a great job! :)

If it makes you feel any better, over Labor Day Weekend, the "Can You Hear Me Now" company service was not working....they told us each day to "stay home from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m." and they would be out to fix it....late on the Monday, they discovered something afoul in THEIR switching, and just turned it back on.... no comment on that.
Hi Lorenza! Our Mom wouldn't have been able to figure out how to connect and use all those cords and wires! It looks hard! She must be very smart. :) -Hec and Lola
With a spokespup like that, it's GOT to be good!
We're so glad your internet is back up and running!
Tail wags,
Storms
Congratulations on the new Internet! My Momma doesn't like setting up those things up either, and she always makes my Pops do it. But even he is pretty clueless sometimes, especially about the Internet!
Sonic
Parabéns pelo seu novo serviço de internet! Sua mãe fez um bom trabalho e eu estou contente que tudo funcionou bem!

How about them Yankees??? Woohoo!!! We are so thrilled ..what a fabulous game and team this year!!

I know my Mom gets frustrated with any of those wired OR wireless thingys... but then she asks Robert to fix it, and he does. She doesn't know how she'd get along technically without him!
So glad that she got it all figured out and hope you enjoy your new internets! OC
Puters, who needs them....hey wait a minute! We need them to visit you!
Glad you are getting back online! Good for your mom!
--JB
Congrats to your Mom! I thinks even if the person does know about these things something will go wrong anyway.
~lickies, Ludo
Woof! Lots of Golden Applause to your mom. Great Job!!! You even had time to watch the Yankees. Lots of Golden Woofs, Sugar

That internet can be a touchy thing. Your mom is very brave to tackle it. Good thing she has you for moral support.
Congrats to your mum for sorting out your internet Lorenza. Our mum hasn't a clue about these things and usually gets someone else to do it for her...lol

Your mom did a great job with her internet service! And she was very brave to even try it!! Sometimes I think that computers like to tease us just to make us crazy, and it works!! Anyway, super job!!
