Exposed, the Watkins Lady’s secret life!

Welcome! If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I’ve been suffering from a Major Frustration for the Internet Marketer, poor to no internet connection! For weeks I’ve had trouble watching videos, pages haven’t loaded, instant messages, tweets and email sending and pick up was erratic. A few weekends ago everything ground to a halt, although I try not to work on the weekends I still check my email and like to socialize a bit by visiting my friends on Facebook.

I tried all the usual tricks; turned my computer off, unplugged my modem, my wireless router and even the phone line but nothing helped. I resorted to plugging into my computer’s internal modem with a very long phone cord and using dial up, it worked just as good or better than my ADSL had been! So I’m on the phone with my Internet service provider… they have a fancy voice recognition navigation system when you call customer support. I think it’s cool but I imagine not everyone would feel the same way. Any ways after three phone calls they decide to send out a technician (fancy name for repair person) who quickly discovered that their 5 year old modem was the problem. The technician replaced it with a lovely brand new one and everything works just like it should.

Can you see me doing the Happy Dance? Wow, I have blazing speeds again! Now I’m asking myself, “why didn’t I call them sooner to complain?” I love high speed ADSL when it works! I can watch videos, have 20 or more pages open in my tabs, respond to my instant messages, twitter with my Internet marketing friends and reply to my emails. More importantly, I can update my web sites and add more content. I might even visit Facebook this weekend…
