Warblogging . . . from the comfort of your own home

If there is anything to be "proud" of in being a "geek," as my wife so lovingly calls ("Come here, you big geek stud . . ."), this is it. I've got a few minutes at home this morning and needed to get online. Open up the notebook and I've got no signal from my wifi network. Obviously something was screwed up in the settings (and has been corrected), but I didn't have time to screw with it just at that moment. So, I look at the airport signal window and find that one of my neighbours has a home net as well. What the hell," I think. My network is secure and closed, but . . . let's give it a run. Sure enough: low signal but an open network. Result: I get on the Internet, did my thing, and was finished in time to wake up the kid.

Back on my own network. Apparently when the Powerbook had a little self-imposed shut down it change the setting from airport to ethernet. We're back on and rocking. Gotta go.
