TwentyFortyOne Blog » ben diggles http://twentyfortyone.com/blog I don't think you're ready for this jelly Wed, 01 Sep 2010 22:28:10 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 en hourly 1 PAY UP, SUCKER http://twentyfortyone.com/blog/pay-up-sucker/ http://twentyfortyone.com/blog/pay-up-sucker/#comments Wed, 14 Oct 2009 16:55:51 +0000 Brian Baldwin http://twentyfortyone.com/blog/?p=283 So last week I’m sitting here at work, minding my own business, when I get an email from my good friend Cable. The email came addressed with the ever-ambiguous title of “dude”, so I thought it must have been about xboxes, or subarus or something like that. Well the body told a different story…

“I was going to you check out your blog today, but when i try to go to your website i get this page:

Just thought you should know.”

Needless to say I immediately went into damage control mode and got on the horn with everyone I could think of to solve the problem. After the fiasco Ben went through with his server buuuuull shit, I wasn’t about to deal with that heavy of a load.

Turns out I just needed to renew my domain and pay the $15! haha. I’ve owned the domain since high school, but my buddy Brosh was the one who knew how to do all that chit so he’s been renewing it and I just pay him. Well turns out it’s his older brother who has it registered (who in turn would pay ANOTHER GUY), so the money has exchanged a lot of hands since 2000.

I know all 7 of you who came to my site last week were left hanging, but I assure you peace has been restored once again!

So to be fair, I’m just going to get right into what blogs are for…. RANTING.

I just got this fairly new looking D-Link router from my fiance’s parents, and I’m stoked! Oh how quick the excitement wears off… Originally I thought it was a Linksys router, which would have been great because I’ve been looking for a cheap replacement for my existing D-Link. I don’t have much experience with this whole router biz, but for me if it isn’t an Airport, I don’t deal with it. But for some time now I’ve been rollin with this shitty D-Link that was gifted to me, so I don’t complain.

When I got home last night expectations were high for my soon-to-be tits wi-fi connection, so I wanted to jump right in and set it up. Quick fix, right? It’s just a router, right? Before I knew it I had invested over an hour trying to get all of the “permissions” and “MAC addresses” right just so I could click “Connect” and watch my bars light up… Not so lucky.

In closing, I’ve heard some not-so-encouraging things about D-Link routers in general, so I think from now on I’ll just do my part to avoid them all together. So if someone wants to trade a Linksys or Airport for one, BRING IT!

P.S. Major thanks to my dear friend Ben Diggles for getting me all set with wordpress! Who knew that with iChat, and an afternoon of patience, I too could have a blog?..
