Some of you may have seen my tweets saying that I was experiencing Broadband issues. When I am not searching for boobies on the net, I am an IT networking specialist so when I have a networking issue I have the knowledge and equipment to locate the problem. When my broadband speed plummeted one day, I soon proved it was an external issue.
At this point, my heart sunk. I would have to contact the broadband supplier helpdesk. As someone whose own life is made easier by the filtering skills of a help desk, I have to admit they serve their purpose. I only wish I could take a competence exam and earn the right to bypass stage one of making a support call.
As I dreaded, my support call failed to get through stage one, their remote diagnostic found no fault, so I started to be bombarded with their "clear your Internet cache" advice. My brother once has his telegraph pole knocked down by a joyrider and the helpline advice was to clear his Internet cache and cookies.
Days went by, I sent Emails explaining I had swapped all my equipment but the problem remains but the replies where always helpful advice on how to plug in my filters.
One evening I was tweeting the lovely
Jayne Star from MyFreeCams explaining how I would not be able to make it to her live cum show because of my broadband problems when our conversation was interrupted by a tweet from my broadband supplier!
They obviously scan all tweets looking for their name to be taken in vain but it was quite amusing, and embarrassing, to have my cum show discussion interrupted.
Later, I contacted them again with my non-porn account and amazingly they got a real engineer to check the line and found a fault. My line was fixed today, unfortunately I now have the wait whilst the speed profile builds up again. To read more about IP profiles please continue reading.
