Fooled by Streamyx?
This is my third post about Tmnet Streamyx for the third day…
23rd March 2004 — according to my housemate who stay at home whole day, the line is okay during day time. “Finally, it is back to normal~”, I felt so in office when got his good news.
When I back home, the first thing I do is to check the @#$%^&* DSL LED. Wow! It is on and not flashing! Great! :D
*happy happy*
I rest my mind and went for dinner… back infront my computer monitor at 9pm. Something wrong… look at the *censored* *censored* *censored* DSL *censored* LED…
*CENSORED* It is blinking again! :(
It remind me the song we sang during primary school, “一闪一闪亮晶晶……” (“little star”, if I am correct)
I gave it times to back to normal. Waiting it while watching VCD… one disc, two disc, third disc… It has been blinking for three hours till 12am!
“Sorry, I can’t wait anymore. You have reached my limit!”
Unplug the DSL router modem and throw it away(kidding, of coz) and plug in phone line into my old dusty 56k modem. *hug hug*
“Deeee….Doooo….Duuu….Yiii…..de..de…Gi….” (read: initialting connection… connected… verifying username and password…)
Great! It is connected! :D
First thing to do is checking emails… just after few minutes, something wrong again. The modem is not receiving any incoming data…
Okie, disconnect and reconnect back.
“Deeee….Doooo….Duuu….Yiii…..de..de…Gi….”
“……………………..” (read: silent)
No sound come out from modem. Then an error message pop up, “Verifying username/password failed, please check your username and password again”(something like that)
FINE! Even dialup also fails now! *censored* *censored*
*SIGH*
I gave up. Unplug modem and plug DSL router modem back… SURPRISED!!! No more blinking DSL LED! It is connected at 446k! :D
*Fast fast launched my browser to blog this post*
Just after I typed the first sentence of this post, the *censored censored censored…* DSL LED is blinking AGAIN! What a surprise huh?
This is a delayed post which is written at 24-MAr-2004 1:00am.
Thought:
Spending many time to plug/unplug, testing, asking, searching, praying… just wish the little *censored* LED on but not blinking.
It has totally spoiled my mood. :(
As far as I know, the line is okay start from early morning (3am to 4am) till evening or night(8pm-9pm). It will blinking blinking at the time I want to access Internet(start from 10pm)…
*censored* ! Really feel that I have been fooled by Tmnet…
P/S: “pick up – put down trick” in previous post’s comment does not work for me. Modem tweaking does not apply to my *censored* router modem neither. Thanks for the helps, anyway.
