Be Online, Be Broadband

So here I am configuring my wireless router on a late Thursday/early Friday morning. Why? Because after getting back from the pub, I found my 24Mbps DSL2 had finally been activated. I was surprised to see how quickly it was connected, after all, I had only placed my order for DSL from Be Unlimited last Thursday and had heard nightmare stories (sorry Karl) about other ISPs (i.e. Bulldog) where people have been waiting for more than 6 weeks to get connected.

I must admit that customer service so far has been fantastic. After signing up (on quarterly terms) I got emails telling me what I would expect. One told me that my wireless router was supposed to arrive Thursday (but arrived Wednesday) and I would be connected by Tuesday. On Monday, I received an email saying because of reasons outside of their control, the connection was postponed for a couple of days… and now here I am connected What a bargain! Now all I have to do is learn how to configure this router to make it a little bit more secure. By the way, let me know if you want to get connected. 🙂

  1. Try 8 weeks! I’m just trying to recall who it was that said, ‘Next time, I’m going to go with Bulldog’. Can you recall who that was Ben? Not that I am bitter… 🙂

    Fortunately for me, ‘securing the wireless router’ wasn’t high on list of my neighbour’s priorities. 😉
