Dropped a tree onto the wires ,snapped the utility pole.  No power ,no cable. Internet, phone.  

Yesterday was the day that my customers had to call by to get a discount.

60 on Monday…….love New England weather.

Offered to take my boys to the Twins opener yesterday.  They chose the auto show.  Not at all due to the weather, but just the fact how boring baseball was.  Figured I'd be a crappy parent to not offer them a baseball game experience at least once.  Took them to the Globetrotters game a week ago, going to a Loons game tomorrow and a Wild game next week...but they said no to baseball.  They both have been to the Saints stadium as we went to the championship game, but that might be more exciting than anything MLB has to offer as an experience.

Can't tether your computer to your cell?

Pc's are on UPS systems. 

No internet no QB makes my wife rather disagreeable...even more so than usual

Football, we sit in our seats and watch game. Baseball, maybe a couple innings.  Rest of the time it is just a big party.  I don’t think I have ever sat and watched 9 innings of baseball.

Turn the hotspot on in your settings. You will probably need to setup a password. Then just search for wireless from your laptop and connect to the phone hotspot.

It's why we have a Generator. Our Power used to go off at least twice a month, they buried lots of the wires along many roads now and had tree service guys with telescopic boom saw blade trucks that reach up over 100 feet to cut branches and cut trees down, now our power only goes off maybe 6-10 times a year.

Generator is working  ( after I repaired extension cord for it ) woodstove has the place toasty but cell signal must be too weak for quickbooks to load

Damn....... That's all it seems to do around here is rain too, well above average for the year so far.  Totally ripping up my backyard with my S x S.

CKF explained.

If you use your home wifi with your phone,  you may need to delete that temporarily or your phone will attempt to use your non working wifi as it's internet connection.

My cell gets 70 mbps where my cable internet is 10.

I don't use wifi on my phone.
