Ring ring…
"Hey mom did you get number need new ip address message?"
"yes"
"what did you do?"
"I called the tech. and we retweaked my settings what’s the number? "
"Okay, again; only slower this time. "
"Okay got it"
"Bye."
"Bye"

A few minutes later ~

ring ring
"mom that was a local number "
"they are closed "
"do you have the other # ?"
"Yea "
"it’s here some where "
rustle of papers ---
more papers rustling ---
here it is! "
I give him the other non local number.
And put them under the glass for easy access on my desk.

What I did:

[I love it when our son a jr. in collage calls me for techie help!]
While I was looking for the paper with the phone # on it.

I told him that I told the tech. that "I broke the internet" when I made my call and convinced him it was the rain and clouds snow and other inclement weather that was the problem we laughed!

We did some "trouble shooting", I said I'd just moved the pc in from the living room and the modem has to be plugged in first and yes I had restarted it a couple of times eventually we found the problem wireless router had a cord plugged in the wrong place, changing that fixed the problem.
