Hi Carol: You are correct about misunderstanding
you with respect to the "tackle" issue with the tech
guy. I am in a mild melt-down situation that I have
to get up from my computer and walk outside to the hot sun. It must be very easy
for you to spot the ignorance of a wanna-be computer savvy, by the way I twist myself
with my own mistakes. But hey, nobody is born to a baby bottle attached to a
computer. What I mean is that despite my frustrations, I will get there. Oh, by the
way, I just
got a email message from the tech guy. Get this
Carol: He sends me the name of several routers. He instructs me about setups if connected
to a router!!! I am not connected to a router. (I used to
be). So this gives you an idea of a melt down. But
that is another story. Sorry I never got around to
responding specifically to your comments. I will go
back and read them for next time, O.K?
Robert.
