The Adventures of ALS Boy

A middle-school math teacher documents his joyful life while battling the evil forces of ALS.

No Wireless No Problem

Wi-Fi Shmi-Fi

Today was the day my wireless woes went away. I hope.

With the expert help of blog reader Gary (who is also married to one of my former teaching colleagues) and the omnipresent Italian Man Servant, we were able to vanquish the seemingly unbeatable foe by going old school on his @$!

Even relocating the wireless router mere inches away from my Dynavox couldn't get the job done. I guess the developers spent all their seed money on the top-notch speaking and eye gaze components and next to nothing on an adequate wi-fi system. When all the shouting was done, I am now connected to the interweb by way of an ethernet cord.

Who would have predicted that that would have been the solution to my wireless problem? Not I, that's fa sho. Wi-fi is dead, long live the ethernet cable!

Thanks Gary and the ILM.
