Attempting to power up... failed.
Jan. 5th, 2005 03:35 pmMeh, lovely. I work nights now. I'm on about 4 hours sleep thanks to a mid-day call from the old job. I still help out there, but they know better than to call me during daylight hours. If they're calling me, it's probably some crisis.
It was.
Apparently the wireless I set up at a place yesterday is totally down. Four machines offline. Ten minutes on the phone with the customer and it's bloody obvious the APs are up. One machine "inexplicably" lost the WEP settings (I'll explain it: STOP SCREWING WITH THE DAMN THING!), one was fine by the time the customer looked at it again, one refused to connect until it was rebooted, and the last one, well, the customer felt confident enough to troubleshoot that one.
I'm expecting a call back, most likely direct to my cellphone (damn caller ID...) any minute now.
