Woohoo! I have internet access IN MY ROOM away from PRYING EYES. PRYING.

Unfortunately, while this netty goodness is in my room, it is not in fact on my actual computer. That is, it connects to my computer just fine. But then the PC crashes. Bad sign. I'm on my laptop right now. It has a slightly clunky keyboard and a touchpad mouse, which pisses me off, but more importantly it does not, when attached to the ethernet cable, sit upon my desk. Instead the cable only reaches to the top of my PC box, where I have to bend down in a sort of uncomfortable fashion.

So, to recap: I can use my comfy computer, as long as I don't cause it the mortal offence of plugging it into any network whatsoever, I can use the internet in my room as long as I'm lying on my bed or bending over like a sweatshop worker, and I can have the use of both a decent PC and the internet on a timeshare with the rest of my family with no privacy whatsoever.

Win.

I am so about to metaquotes this.

Edit: Done! (http://community.livejournal.com/metaquotes/6583481.html)

Woo. It's been ages since I've been metaquoted.

Hey! Here from metaquotes. I know exactly how you feel. Well, almost. My laptop wireless had an almost non-existent success rate, so my dad climbed into the roof to connect it to the modem with a landline, but it still only works less than half the times I try to use it. It's been good recently though. That's what happens when you buy a laptop secondhand from the high school IT people.
