Welcome back. I say that assuming you are not a “Never Trumper”.

I had a HotSpot unit die on me a year or so ago.

I was surprised as most electronics works great well after it is obsolete.

Was your Hot Spot 3G only?

I don’t do vanities.

Interesting. Did you figure out why you were disconnected? I bet that a lot of rural folks use the telephone network for data.

[sopo]

It’s a good thing! Maybe things can get back to normal now.

[Redcitizen]

Howdy! Welcome back. :)

[Az Joe]

Any chance the HotSpot will go down again?

what upchuck... 😁...

[dhs12345]

I wonder some times if it is best to just lock myself away and wait for the whole thing to blow over. Dump the technology because it will be useless if/when the STF.

It might not be a bad thing to be isolated and off-grid. But only check periodically to monitor the outside world.

[mairdie]

Terribly sorry to hear about your hotspot problem. Must have been intensely frustrating, but you triumphed over Tech! YES!

Welcome home...

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Wondered what happened to you.

Welcome back.

[Manly Warrior]

You must really far off the beaten path as 19-5=14 and a week around most parts is 7 days. That’s two weeks for us here in rural Missouri.

I know things go at a slower rate in the south.

Cool.

Do you have a twin brother named downchuck?

[Larry Lucido]

Working on that blog? :-)

I’m guessing Verizon.

Useless bunch of idiots making even more rationale for outsourcing American jobs.

[Openurmind]

Cool, this has happened to us also. We do the same here in our remote area. But we tether our phones as a modem rather than hotspot wireless. It keeps the phone charged up from the PC at the same time. Always topped off and ready to go. :)

Isn’t it funny how exciting it is to get an internet connection back? It is always just as exciting as the very first time. lol

Welcome back ! It’s good to have input from all of the states and especially the more rural states . Sorry but the blue hives and their moral meanderings do not stir my ole country soul like the rural perspective . Like hot grits cooked in a southern cast iron pan . After delivering ten babies in below zero weather, after fixing the well pump that always goes down when the storm is hard on us . It is then that the grits carry the heat down into your bones . Microwave ? Humphhhh! Gimme some of those Southern grits like that sweet ole lady from Georgia taught my wife to make .They carry the heat ! Try it! I sometimes wonder if the Southern folk appreciate the power of grits like some of us converted Yankees up in the snow belt ? Strike me guilty of cultural appropriation . Don’t get me started on sweet taters , heh .
