Good morning, mylotters!
I am so acostumed to having no internet problems that I tend to forget that it doesn´t happen this way everywhere.
I am at my aunt´s house in San Fernando and this another world entirely.
Where I live, a big city with millions of people, noone knows anyone nor cares to do so. We are isolated from our neighbors. Thus, for many of us (including the children), computers, tablets and cell phones are the best way to relate with others.
Here in San Fernando, a small town, everyone knows each other. And internet is more a luxury than a necessity.
Yesterday, after we went to a social dinner to collect funds for needy people, I wanted to tell you about it. But when I turned on my laptop it said "limited internet" and I could not get in.
I´ll be here for a few days and will do what I can. Mostly I will read your post which I think it´s easier. Take care, friends. O´ll be back on Sunday.

@marguicha In many cases the router just locks after a long period of constant activity and just needs rebooting. Unfortunately most staff are not aware of that.

Internet in my city is taken for granted. We even have wifi at the metro stations.

@SHOHANA In smaller places, I imagine technology doesn´t come so fast.
