Ugh, Computers...

NorthernMommy and LittleNortherner headed to a "Family Formal" fundraiser at one of the local schools tonight. NorthernDaddy doesn't do 'formal', so he stayed home to work on installing a new wireless router for the computer. It looked easy.

It was far from easy. The new router needed to interface with the older modem, and it did not seem to want to. There were all kinds of settings to change, multiple levels of passwords, and some re-booting needing to be done to convince these pieces of hardware to talk to each other.

NorthernDaddy hates working on computers. Using them is just peachy, but messing with software settings makes him ugly. He's just gonna sit around and wait until LittleNortherner gets old enough to become his full-time IT guy....


NorthernDaddy was going to post a photo of the actual computer and hardware that he was fighting with until he realized that the photo included a piece of paper with his network identifiers and passwords - so he is going with this nice photo of NASA's space launch facility. (It looks about the same as the Northerns' mess.)
