I'm so flipping pissed right now....

My modem from the phone company gave me all kinds of trouble...I think they replaced it four times.

I finally went and just bought my own and have had no trouble with it yet (so far).

Pablo, It ain't that bad, (I hope) If you have the $ for it, go to a computer parts place and get a little unit called WI-FI antenna. They should know what you are talking about. It's like a modem but not as strong, and it will get you going again. Win XP will do everything but install the drivers for it. It will come with a cd. The drivers are there. It will only work in the city, or very near public librarys RV parks ect. Or do what I do Go to the internet place grab the geek by the neck and tell them you would like a new modem. Take the other one with you to return. Hope this helps. WI-FI will plug into a
USB or PCMCIA port. Later Tramp

I Hear You Guys !! If I Lose My Connection, Its More Upsetting Than Losing My Wife ! I Lost Her Due To Illness, She Got Sick Of Me ! Apparently Its Incurable, She Never Got Over It (the Disease). A Computor Without Internet Connection Is Like A Boat Without A Sonar Or Bottom Finder (fish Finder). Thats My 2 Cents.
