After some unfortunate delays getting and Internet connection in my new place, it’s now all sorted. A special mention to BT whose inefficiency and stupid artificial product differentiation caused much annoyance and delay. Thanks to Vodafone who provided the required link very quickly and efficiently in the end. Even when I needed to phone them up to confirm some router settings, they were very helpful. Now to get some more content written…
–Update – I spoke too soon, and Vodafone didn’t give me the fixed IP we ordered. It is now, they assure me. My thanks to the guy who just fixed it for me.
