Jan. 21st, 2017 06:20 pmSome time ago, when the Millennium Update borked my internet connection, ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
kk1raven warned me that the rollback fix would not last forever - that, eventually, a new update would recreate the problem. I had had some hope that this would not happen, after several uneventful updates, but it was not to be: this morning, I again lost contact.
This time, though, I had an option, in the form of my new laptop. I trotted over to Best Buy and bought and installed a router. I still can't get online from my desktop - I shall probably have to replace the five-year-old machine - but the laptop is an almost-satisfactory substitute.
I was going to resume discussing my break, but that will wait until tomorrow. In the meantime, I am insufferably pleased with myself. (Demon of procrastination, avaunt!)
[Yes, I'm aware of the irony in that last paragraph.]
