At last we got the cable back  

Oh my gosh yes that would be enough to give your sense of humor an ouchie. Take Care my friend.

That sounds absolutely maddening, what you had to go through. I hate it when there are problems like that. I am glad you finally got eerything working.

I don't have cable at home; no TV, no laptop, I use the wi-fi hotspot at the cae up the street, which can also screw up on occasion. I just published a discussion about that here, under "internet" on MyLot (same cetegory as this one!!). The problem was fixed, but it was maddening.

Hey thre howyou doing? ... Oh I so hate when there is a slow connection, it's hard to believe that it akes so much difference but it does. I am glad you got your speed back. It is crucialthese days when trying to be as productive and efficient as you can on the internet. Long Live High Speed Connections! Have A Great Day!
