Yesterday, shortly before my sister and brother-in-law arrived, we determined we were going to have to contact our IT people to get her printer to respond. In the end, someone had to come over this evening to reconfigure it. By then, the furniture had been moved, and I had gone out and bought an ethernet cable. It actually did take the combined effort of the guy and me to get it through the wall. So I am now on wired internet once again.
And I'm having doubts about how much it helped. I initially thought it might have, but even then the quality of the stream I'm watching has kept going back and forth, and now it's stopping again. I actually went and measured my internet speed on two different recommended websites, though, and it's really high. Download and upload speed both. I don't get it.
I think I'm just going to try streaming in December anyway and see what the hell happens. At least if the shutdown's still going, then.
